The bcc command defaults to using /usr/bcc/include and /usr/bcc/lib/bcc
the libraries _and_ include files are copied to these locations by
-install. This can be changed by overriding 'PREFIX=/usr/bcc' or
+install. This can be changed by overriding 'PREFIX=/usr' or

same way the 'ELKSSRC=/usr/src/elks' variable can be altered if you

'MSDOS', 'standalone' and Linux-i386.
