THere is no bogus messages.  Installing in /usr/local does not overwrite
the system's libc and is safe from this perspective.  But gcc handles
/usr/local special which might lead to normal compilations picking the
headers up which might or might not lead to problems.  And /usr/local is
the default prefix because this is what it always is.
