I know I had to add that flag or my configure failed - for some reason,
TEA and TEA 2 based extensions do not, by default look for what they
need in $prefix and $exec_prefix - in my opinion, they should look there
before reporting that a flag is needed.

I installed it first myself - but as I mention above, the configure
doesn't appear to look in the directory where things are installed...
