Yes, I get /usr/local/emacs/site-lisp by default, which is different from the system site-lisp, which is in /usr/share/emacs.
So it takes effort to get your self-built emacs to use the system site-lisp.

Also, /Library is in not the equivalent of /usr/local.  /usr/local is the equivalent of /usr/local.
/Library is a system directory, a mix of /etc and /usr/share.  There are startup daemons there, fonts, internet plugins and so on.  These things are not in /usr/local on any sane Unix-like OS.
