How about just:

*** Makefile.in	2012-08-20 22:12:35 +0000
--- Makefile.in	2012-08-20 22:39:11 +0000

  	if test "${ns_self_contained}" = "no"; then \
  	  ${INSTALL_PROGRAM} $(INSTALL_STRIP) src/emacs${EXEEXT} $(DESTDIR)${bindir}/$(EMACSFULL) || exit 1 ; \
  	  chmod 1755 $(DESTDIR)${bindir}/$(EMACSFULL) ; \
+ 	  if test "x${EMACS_NO_BIN_LINK}" = x; then \
  	    rm -f $(DESTDIR)${bindir}/$(EMACS) ; \
  	    cd $(DESTDIR)${bindir} && $(LN_S) $(EMACSFULL) $(EMACS); \
+ 	  fi; \
  	else \
  	  subdir=${ns_appresdir}/site-lisp; \
  	  ${write_subdir} || exit 1; \



Then you can use

EMACS_NO_BIN_LINK=t make install
