[bug #24670] gnustep-base installs by default in SYSTEM

domain 

Yes

specify a value) 

No, GNUSTEP_INSTALLATION_DOMAIN should never be hardcoded in a 
GNUmakefile.  Currently we do support it though; maybe this should be
disabled to protect users from software authors overwriting System stuff
and GNUSTEP_INSTALLATION_DOMAINs set in GNUmakefiles should be ignored.

project author > defined a value. 

Well, the default - very predictably - is always LOCAL - as per GNU Coding
Standards.

Thanks
