If this is what the documentation says then it is incorrect.  It should read
something similar to what Corinna gives in
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2000-11/msg00928.html .

To make installation you would then do `make install prefix=/install/usr
sysconfdir=/install/etc libexecdir=/install/usr/sbin' and maybe need to add
`localstatedir=/install/var'.

Comments?
