No, not at all.

Yes, it's quite realistic.

Either with the script above, or you can build the binaries you a 
interested in with special paths, just like 
--enable-hardcoded-paths-in-tests does.

For more realistic testing (which is still reasonably easy to set up), I 
create a chroot with mock and run “make install DESTDIR=/path/to/chroot” 
from outside of the chroot.
