Agreed.  

This appears to be an artifact of the gprofng's testing environment.  In
particular in gprofng/testsuite/config/default.exp there is:

  # Make a temporary install dir to run gprofng from, and point at it
  remote_exec host "sh -c \"rm -rf tmpdir; mkdir -p tmpdir; $MAKE -C ..
install-gprofng 
  program_transform_name= DESTDIR=`pwd`/tmpdir/root\""

Which is probably the trigger.  I am reassigning this PR to gprofng in 
the hopes that one of the maintainers will know why the installation is
necessary and may be able to come up with a workaround.
