   Problem: the configure script that creates the top-level Makefile sets
   BUILDTOP to the empty string, which means that references to it
   followed by slashes in the Makefile are wrong.  For example, we edit
   config/pre.in at our site to make the installation directories
   relative to $(BUILDTOP), e.g., setting KRB5ROOT to
   "$(BUILDTOP)/../../install", which turns into "/../../install", which
   is obviously wrong.

Fixed in our sources.  Buildtop is not set correctly by configure.
