How about this? I took into account Ralf's comments as well.
In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give
options like @option{--bind...@var{dir}} to specify different
values for particular kinds of files. Run @samp{configure --help}
for a list of the directories you can set and what kinds of files
go in them. In general, the default for these options is expressed
in terms of @sam...@{prefix@}}, so that specifying just
@option{--prefix} will affect all of the other directory
specifications.
If you wish to install the package into a staging directory
(e.g. for packaging or testing purposes) then you can set the
DESTDIR variable, @samp{make destd...@var{dir} install}.
