[issue9674] make install DESTDIR=/ fails

[aj]

aj <mailtome200420032002 at gmail.com> added the comment:

I ran
./configure --prefix=/
make
make install DESTDIR=/home/blah 
The installation tries to install at /lib/python2.6 which fails because I am not root. It should not try to install anything at / because I specified DESTDIR as /home/blah.
