This source's install is strange. It prefix all installs with $(root) 
which is defined to be our PREFIX. And the configure expects the mandir to 
be a full path, so installs man pages to ${PREFIX}/${PREFIX}/...

The proper fix is not for the man page installs (which is done correctly), 
but for the rest of the executable installs and to get rid of the $(root) 
usage.

I just looked at in its cvs at http://cvs.deepspace6.net/view/ipv6calc/ 
and it appears to be partially fixed.

Maybe updating to ipv6calc-0.50 will fix this. ...

It's not ... the executables want to be installed to ${exec_prefix} but 
that's not even defined for the Makefiles.

Probably missing a:
exec_prefix=@exec_prefix@

I will email the developer about this.
