#5272 new defect

make install behaviour driven by PATH

Description

It keeps striking me that sudo make install can install the libraries in unexpected directory.

This is because PATH affects where binaries are installed, despite what configured at ./configure time.

My workaround to this is sudo PATH=$PATH make install but it doesn't feel completely right. Opinion from packagers is welcome.
