make install (2.0.2) tries useless mkdir

Hello list!

The line 
$(SHTOOL) mkdir -f -p -m 755 $(prefix)/../lib
in Makefile.in tries to create an unused directory in a place where I don't
have permissions to create a directory anyway.

The attached patch library-install.diff corrects the problem by removing the
offending line from Makefile.in.

Bye, Uwe
