Forwarding downstream bug <https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=416515>.

When installing Emacs from BZR trunk as of today, the "install-etc"
target in the top-level Makefile tries to install files outside of
$DESTDIR. In Gentoo's sandboxed environment this leads to an access
violation.

Here is the relevant part of the build log:

umask 022; /bin/mkdir -p /var/tmp/portage/app-editors/emacs-vcs-24.1.9999/image//usr/share/applications
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 /var/tmp/portage/app-editors/emacs-vcs-24.1.9999/work/emacs-vcs-24.1.9999/etc/emacs.desktop \

  done ; \

The following patch should fix it:
