Comment(by nigel):

 I was wrong, using a relative PREFIX like this isn't possible - qmake
 won't allow it. Any relative install path ''always'' has the current
 directory prefixed, which means the install rules will sprinkle stuff all
 over the source tree.

 To do what I was aiming for (have the executable open themes, filters and
 plugins relative to its current directory), we will need a new value
 passed in to MythContext, and probably in configure. (e.g. RUNTIMEPREFIX)
