In my testing just now, I found that if I passed a path to an emacs binary still in the source tree rather than an installed emacs, e.g. ./configure --with-emacs=/usr/local/src/emacs/src/emacs it'll detect and use the emacs source tree as the prefix. , not /usr/local - and install to /usr/local/src/emacs/share/emacs/site-lisp/w3m/ Obviously, if you were to explicitly do ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/src/emacs/ it'll end up there too, but the --with-emacs behaviour is a little sneakier - if you, say, thought you could use --with-emacs to use a freshly built but not yet installed emacs to build emacs-w3m, and it would still install to the default /usr/local/ prefix, well, it doesn't.
