I'm just saying I've never seen an installation where someone uses 'make
dest' and puts the results anywhere besides the standard /usr/afs,
/usr/vice, /usr/afsws, etc (except maybe the environments that already
have their own special workarounds). It doesn't seem like a great loss
to me to lose that ability. But I'm not objecting to keeping it; I'm not
the one doing the work.
