No, that's another story. With --prefix, runtime search path are also changed, e.g. scm files are search under /home/abc/share/lilypond/2.5.x/scm. But with DESTDIR, runtime search paths are not modified at all, just that every single file is installed into another location, in order to avoid contaminating the building machine.
