You should always use --prefix, don't install to /usr/local, it might
break your system.

In that case I don't understand what's wrong.  It works for everybody

know why, tell us and we'll try to fix it.

I have one idea: can you send me the output of configure and the files
config.make and sysd-sorted and the output of "env"?
