[pptp-server] --prefix does only half of the work

Howdy,
we have a local policy that says that everything that has to do with security
should be installed in /usr/local.host/ in stead of /usr/local/.  For
most programs that use "configure" this is easily done by saying 
"configure --prefix=/usr/local.host". Unfortunately when I do this with 
pptpd the software will be installed correctly in /usr/local.host but
when pptpd tries to start pptpctrl it will look for it in... /usr/local :-(
It turns out that defaults.h contains 
#define PREFIX                          "/usr/local/"
in stead of the prefix I gave with "configure --prefix=...".
