[svn-r7903] Change --prefix default to `pwd`/hdf5, a directory in the build

directory.  This eliminates the problem that the builder may not
have permission to install in the default install directory.
It also allows multiple builds in the same host or multiple srcdir
using the same source.

Platforms tested:
Eirene plus eyeballing of changes.

Misc. update:
