Ah, I've now had a closer look.  The problem only arises if you do a 

cd /path/to/sxemacs/lib-src
make all install

In this case ${old_version} is not set.  It's only known in the top
level Makefile.  If I issue the make command from the top level
directory, the target location is correctly evaluated.
