Ref: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2013-09/msg00033.html If it cannot be made to work, configure should abort with an error in such cases. I have some vague memory that it also might not work with spaces in the names, but did not test. Similar restrictions may apply to the install --prefix as well.
