diff -uNr of makefiles generated by 6.42 and 6.43_01

With ExtUtils::MakeMaker >= 6.43 an 'rpmbuild -ta ...' yields:

make: *** [data__install] Error 2
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.19547 (%install)


RPM build errors:
    Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.19547 (%install)

All the paths above do not reference $RPM_BUILD_ROOT.

I did some investigation and downgraded ExtUtils::MakeMaker until it started
working again.

I'll attach a diff of Makefiles generated with 6.42 (which works) and 6.43
(which doesn't).

I've no idea if this issue is with MakeMaker or the SA Makefile.PL
implementation, but Makefile.PL code appears to think that MakeMaker doesn't
support DESTDIR in the newer versions.
