there should be an option for configure to tell it where the installed version 
lives.... usually something like --prefix=/my/dir/

i dont use that myself however, i am used to supplying all it needs on the 
commandline. (include and library pathes etc)

after "make all" try "make install" or just "install" .... depends on the 
config script.... again, i've personally never used this, i just compile the 
stuff at the place i want it to be (NOT in /usr/local for that matter)

oh, and remember that you'll have to be root when copying stuff to /usr/local 
(ie, also when doing "make install" or sth)

depends on your system.... there should be a file like "bashrc" or 
"bashrc.local" or sth like that with your default environment config in 
it..... look for such a file and add 

export PATH=$PATH:/my/dir

there (this is bash syntax, it may look different if you are using another 
shell)
