Alternate Install Location Patch Proposal

[Doug Kehn]

Hi All,

Below (and attached) is a patch that will allow openssh to be installed in an alternate location.  This is essential when cross-compiling.  The cross-compile use case is:

   configure [bunch-of-options]
   make
   DESTDIR=<alt-location> make install-nokeys

I believe the patch may also be useful for non-cross-compiling cases.

Regards,
...doug
