The installation directory is $exec_prefix/bin, which is usually the same as
$prefix/bin.  I generally configure stuff so that it gets put in its own
directory.  eg. configure --prefix=/usr/local/insight.  That way I can blow
away the directory without affecting other program installations.  "make
install" will then install everything in subdirectories of /usr/local/insight.
eg /usr/local/insight/bin.  Remeber that the default prefix is /usr/local which
means insight will share the bin directory (/usr/local/bin) with many other
programs if you don't specify --prefix on the configure line.
