[svn-r7190] Purpose:
Feature change. Description: --prefix default was /usr/local. This is not approprirate for development version since it is not likely that one would want to install a development version in the /usr/local area. Solution: 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: h5committested. Also tested in eirene by trying various configure combination to verify the new effect. Misc. update:
