Arg ...

It still does not allow for an easy installation in place other than its
final resting place. Would you consider changing lablgl/lablgtk/lablgtk2
for supporting a single DESTDIR prefix ? I do it for now this way :

        $(MAKE) install\
		LIBDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/liblablgtk-ocaml-dev/usr/lib/ocaml/$(OCAML_VERSION) \
		BINDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/liblablgtk-ocaml-dev/usr/bin

And apply this small patch to src/Makefile

        rm -f testcc.ml
 
 install:
+       @$(MAKE) real-install INSTALLDIR=$(LIBDIR)/lablgtk DLLDIR=$(LIBDIR)/stublibs BINDIR=$(BINDIR)
+real-install:
        if test -d $(INSTALLDIR); then : ; else mkdir -p $(INSTALLDIR);
fi
        cp $(ALLOBJS:.cmo=.cmi) $(THOBJS:.cmo=.cmi) $(INSTALLDIR)
        cp -p *.mli $(INSTALLDIR)

But some kind of propper DESTDIR support would be nicer.

Well, at least it properly cleans up now.
