I'm not familiar with the sources in question. Is there a configure
script? Does it support the --prefix option?

If so, obtain fresh sources, cd to the source tree in question, and
do something like this...

    mkdir /tmp/testdir
    ./configure --prefix=/tmp/testdir
    make
    make install
    find /tmp/testdir -print | perl -pe 's#^/tmp/testdir##'
    rm -rf /tmp/testdir
