Well this explains more of the root cause. So when you configure the build you 
actually setup the default root directory.

Can you rebuild it with your current rootdirectory, or grep the code and 
replace the path

Also - you are really not supposed to run anything as root except 
administration stuff.

You should build your apps as normal user and use root only to install the 
software (start and stop servers etc)
