I don't set this option at all.
As far as I know I should not set it setting and I've tested with
clean environment (like __MAKE_CONF=/dev/null & SRCCONF=/dev/null).
The PATH should be different for cross-platform build as I do.
the correct install path is
${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}/i386.i386/usr/head/src/tmp/legacy/usr/bin/install
