Yes, the prefix is saved into the executables and the library. That's 
standard practise. You should be more or less used to it.

Because it's not meant to. It tries to find it in $prefix/bin, then in 
$PATH. Make sure it's in one of them.

You probably just want to adjust --prefix to wherever you're going to 
install D-Bus to in your ARM.

Because you configured D-Bus to have the system socket there. You should 
change it with --prefix, --localstatedir or --with-system-socket during 
configuration of the sources.

You probably want both of the first two.

Debug it. This looks like a real problem. D-Bus is trying to get the 
information on the current user from /etc/passwd and it failed.
