Don't run Configure with the -d switch, and you will be able to answer
Configure's questions interactively. You can press return to accept the
defaults for most options, and [obviously :-)] edit the options where the
default is /usr/local to get rid of the /usr/local
I don't know which options to pass to Configure to change the defaults this
way without experimenting, which I would do by running Configure interactively
the way I've just described :-)
