When you have luck, then the program you want to add supports the 
DESTDIR variable for the "make install" command. The sample Friedl 
refered to, shows how to work with it.
When DESTDIR is not supported, then it could be a bit tricky. I usually 
tend to ask google and look at the debian/suse/redhat srpms. Why 
inventing the wheel twice.... ;-)

Check also the files in the folders
build/scripts/configuration
build/scripts/configuration/help
Those are the files/entries for "make menuconfig" and the associated help.
