What do you get when you type 'make --version' and 'install --version'?

$ make --version

$ install --version
make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.
This is indeed a bizare result... if I go to /usr/bin and run "./install --version" I get:
$ ./install --version
GNUmakefile:36: /usr/include/make/commondefs: No such file or directory
GNUmakefile:74: no file name for `include'
make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/include/make/commondefs'. Stop.
As far as I can tell, it's exactly the same as "install". I do notice this when I run ./configure:
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/ginstall -c
also,
$ ls -l /usr/bin | grep ginstall
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 2006-08-03 19:08 ginstall -> install*
and just to be sure,
$ ls -l /usr/bin | grep install
...
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 2006-08-03 19:08 ginstall -> install*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 503 503 24 2002-02-14 19:33 install*

What is your $PATH for the user that runs these commands?

Since I need to be root to install...
Code:
$ sudo echo $PATH
Password:
/home/cparker/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/opt/www/htdig/bin:/usr/lib/java/bin:/usr/lib/java/jre/bin:/opt/kde/bin:/usr/lib/qt/bin:/usr/share/texmf/bin:.:/home/cparker/geant4/bin/Linux-g++
"cparker" is the user that is currently logged on.

Any ideas?
