     ./configure -h

Shows that this should do it also:

     ./configure --prefix=/usr

When I do that I see this get added to compile lines:

     -DXASTIR_DATA_BASE=\"/usr/share/xastir\"

and "make -n install" shows that it would attempt to install in:

     /usr/bin
     /usr/share
     /usr/lib

instead of the default /usr/local/* areas.
