xfsprogs: only absolute run-paths are allowed

Hi,

I noticed that I can't use --prefix= any more for the ./configure script. 
Doing so makes libtool unhappy:

$ make configure
$ ./configure --prefix=/opt/xfsprogs
$ make
[...]
libtool: link: only absolute run-paths are allowed
make[2]: *** [libxfs.la] Error 1

Digging through the releases I noticed that using --prefix= was possible 
with v3.0.4 but fails with v3.0.5, more exactly commit 595e27 seems to be
the changeset in question, as reverting it helps:

   commit 595e27dbd7360e81fa9e74d992098fe44fd7aed5
   Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch at lst.de>
   Date:   Sat Oct 10 17:02:53 2009 -0400

      update configure defaults


So, I guess my question is: how can I build xfsprogs to install in a 
different location?

Thanks,
Christian.
