Indeed, you're right. I'll build my packages with /usr from now on. :)
Thanks for pointing that out.

That's what Pat uses in his buildscripts, provided it works.

That's indeed what I normally do if DESTDIR fails to work, but then mzscheme 
won't run if the package is installed, because it searches for the libraries 
in /tmp/package-plt/usr.

What I've done now:
- Installed with "make prefix=/usr/lib/plt-scheme-301 install"
- Moved the plt-scheme-301 directory to /tmp/package-plt-scheme/usr/lib
- Make the package

Does that seem a reasonable workaround?
