This is set in configure.ac:

  # Set XASTIR_DATA_BASE in CPPFLAGS due to Gnu coding standard that requires
  # datadir expansion to be deferred until make time.
  if test "x${datadir}" = "x"; then
    CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS -DXASTIR_DATA_BASE=\\\"${ac_default_prefix}/share/xastir\\\""
  else
    CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS -DXASTIR_DATA_BASE=\\\"${datadir}/xastir\\\""
  fi

Perhaps you need to run these on your system to see if you get
XASTIR_DATA_BASE set properly in your Makefiles:

    ./bootstrap.sh
    ./configure
    make clean
    make

Check for the variable getting set with a -D prefix on each compile
line.  If that's present and set correctly, then do a "make install"
again as root or using sudo.
