Then any interested parties should read the ongoing thread here:

IMO, Keith is being unreasonable about "if DESTDIR doesn't work on
win32, we shouldn't add support for it even for those platforms where it
will work". He's graciously allowed that this patch could go in, IF I
convince the automake and autoconf developers to completely redesign the
way DESTDIR works so that it accommodates X: paths.
