Another example of this is glibc using install_root instead of
the standard DESTDIR, which had previously been WONTFIXed:

  http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12179

Is there a good reason not to add something like "install_root ?=
$(DESTDIR)" to Makeconfig, so either will work?

Thanks,
