Description Karl Richter 2015-11-28 04:16:05 UTC 
If `configure` is run without arguments the prefix is `/usr/` which is very unintuitive because it's `/usr/local/` by default. On most systems `/usr/local/bin/` is before `/usr/bin/` in `PATH`.

experienced with v4.3.1

Yes, it should be  /usr/local, patch sent.
