Ok, it looks like at least xfsprogs has a strange desire to put libs in
/usr/libexec.  If you just type "make" it explicitly sets that dir to
/usr/lib instead, so try:

./configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/lib

for your configure options as a workaround, for now.  You'll probably
want to clean the cruft out of /usr/libexec, too.  (Hm, an uninstall
target would be nice, wouldn't it...)
