DESTDIR is a standard variable defined by most Linux distributions while building Makefile packages and is expected to point to the "fake" package root directory.

Without this the installed files will be located in the wrong place (build chroot) on distributions packaging without using fakeroot for example.

Functionality remains unchanged for situations where DESTDIR happens to not be defined.

Thanks for the contrib. We need to update our outdated build/test environment and will do a merge afterwards.
