Is that an observed behavior or a speculated one ?

I mean:
1/ why on earth would our build ever try to create or even install
something in /usr/loca/bin when building an external lib. if we do,
then the fix is to stop that madness, not encourage it :-)
2/ if /usr/local/bin does not exist mkdir -p is not going to succeed
anymore than $(MKDIR), unless you run make as root or have g+w or o+w
authorization on /usr, both of which are a really, really bad idea.
