When building the cygwin1.dll and associated pieces, it is desirable to
use the proper runtime --prefix parameters to 'configure'. After
building the tree, one might want to install it into a different base
directory than 'prefix' using, e.g., 'make install
DESTDIR=/my/own/dest', rather than installing into the running system.
Unfortunately as it stands, the build system will install only a portion
of the code into 'DESTDIR/prefix', and another portion simply into 'prefix'.
The attached patch corrects the relevant Makefiles to honor the DESTDIR
variable.
