Is is possible to install the server + modules and config files in a directory separate from the source?

--prefix=/some/directory

does not seem to be working for me. Running the server out of the source tree with its general clutter seems a lot of trouble. Please advise?

Please read the documentation.
(--> Run ./Config, not ./configure. You may specify the path there.)

Yes, I've run Config but it does not copy all required files using a "make install" like most other packages will. This is a very nice way of keeping the source tree and working environment separate.

I guess that it doesn't support that feature.

Only a few files don't get copied. The only ones I can remember that don't get copied over to the new location are the SSL keys. Other than that, make install should copy all the needed files and modules to the new locastion with no problems.
