[Samba] 4.2.1 ./configure --sbindir & --bindir settings is different from binary?

Never ever use "sudo" for configure.
Engrave it into your skull, if that's how you best memorize the basic rules of
safety.
Only one "sudo" you need is "sudo make install".

Is that before "make install" or after?
Does it stay after install, if it is from before?
