Allowing DESTDIR in the makefile makes the packaging easier as it makes it possible to install the files as intended to some clean sandbox, instead of installing to the living system - such as "make install DESTDIR=/buildroot". This is common practice followed by GNU tools like automake/autoconf/configure etc.
