Hm, since I followed the guidelines from http://cygwin.com/setup.html, I 
untared my source archive in /tmp and made the binary package there. 
Since the binary package is an archive containing the contents of .inst 
(which is removed immediately after istallation, so I can't see it) and 
since the binary package is not empty, I asume that everything works as 
it should.

Of course I forgot to mention: I changed the occurences of $prefix to 
$DESTDIR in the Makefile.

Best regards,
Daniel
