$DESTDIR is more usual during the build than $dest and is what is usually
used in the makefiles, so let's use it too.

While I do not have much preference either way, I do not want to
make this kind of change without making corresponding changes to
the spec.in and debian/rules file in the same commit, or another
commit that immediately follow it.  And I wanted to do a 0.99.4
tomorrow, so I hope you would not mind if I placed this on
hold...

No problem, this was just some of the last tidbits wrt. synchronization
of the makefiles with Cogito.
