[un]install-*-local/install-*-hook does not honor DESTDIR

[Eugene Crosser]

Dear gentlemen.

It seems that as of versions 1.9.2 and 1.9.3 at least, automake does not 
 set DESTDIR when it executes install-data-local and similar targets. 
if you do (as documentation suggests)

install-data-local:
             $(INSTALL_DATA) $(srcdir)/afile $(DESTDIR)/etc/afile

and run "make install DESTDIR=/new/root", all "standard" targets are 
installed inside /new/root, but "afile" is installed into real /etc/.

Minimum harm from it is that it breaks "make distcheck", but it may 
seriously wreak havoc if "make install DESTDIR=..." is run as root...

Regards,
Eugene
