+Subject: [PATCH] Makefile: add missing DESTDIR variable use
+
 Patch borrowed from OpenEmbedded, available at
 recipes/libaio/libaio-0.3.106/destdir.patch in their source tree.
 
 It just adds support for the traditional DESTDIR variable to install
 the library in a different sysroot than the normal /.
