Why is /usr/local/bin in their default paths, then ?

Waht ever the reason is - IMHO we should add a check for that in the 
"make install" procedure at the very end and print a big fat warning in that
case. For binary distribs in RPM/DEB/whatever format one should set prefix
to /usr anyway, so no problem.

We already have that warnings from libtool while installing the rendering
libs, but those are scrolled off the screen already, when the installation 
ends.
