I can't reproduce it:

$ bash ~/src/bash/bash-3.2-patched/configure --disable-nls --prefix=/home/foo
checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
        [...]
$ grep prefix Makefile
prefix = /home/foo
        [...]
$ gmake -n install
        [...]
/bin/sh /homes/chet/src/bash/bash-3.2-patched/support/mkinstalldirs 
/home/foo/bin
/bin/sh /homes/chet/src/bash/bash-3.2-patched/support/mkinstalldirs 
/home/foo/man/man1
/bin/sh /homes/chet/src/bash/bash-3.2-patched/support/mkinstalldirs 
/home/foo/info
        [...]

This indicates that `make install' is using /home/foo for $prefix.  It
might be something in your environment that is changing the default.
