Comment(by davidbuzz at gmail.com):

 Perhaps the original submitter's desire was to have the ability to build
 the application in one location/configuration, and not be constrained to
 keeping it in that precise path when it is "installed" into a new location
 (ie when the binaries are copied onto a different PC they can be put
 elsewhere).?    It's common practice under windows to allow a use to do
 this, and "install" the application wherever they like.   hard-coding
 paths at compile-time is very frowned apon.

 Buzz.
