To do this,

should also be changed to create $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/bin instead of $(DESTDIR)$(bindir).
The patch below will break if $(bindir) != $(prefix)/bin.
Clearly, this breaks the use of --bindir.

without all this Java craziness. That will involve removing all these hardcoded jre/bin references altogether.
