You must install it (make install prefix=<path_to_install_dir>)
Then run the installed insight under path_to_install_dir/bin
The installed insight runs OK, but why we have to install it to get it
run? People usually do
configure
make
make check
make install
But this sequence does not work for insight 6.6 release. We have to
configure
make
make install
make clean
make check
People worked really hard to allow insight to be run from the build
directory years ago:

As Jim said, "This really should work."
