There's more to this error. The important part is just above this and
looks like:

/usr/bin/install: ‘curl.h’ and ‘/build/curl/include/curl/curl.h’ are the same file
/usr/bin/install: ‘curlver.h’ and ‘/build/curl/include/curl/curlver.h’ are the same file
/usr/bin/install: ‘easy.h’ and ‘/build/curl/include/curl/easy.h’ are the same file
/usr/bin/install: ‘mprintf.h’ and ‘/build/curl/include/curl/mprintf.h’ are the same file
/usr/bin/install: ‘stdcheaders.h’ and ‘/build/curl/include/curl/stdcheaders.h’ are the same file
/usr/bin/install: ‘multi.h’ and ‘/build/curl/include/curl/multi.h’ are the same file
/usr/bin/install: ‘typecheck-gcc.h’ and ‘/build/curl/include/curl/typecheck-gcc.h’ are the same file
/usr/bin/install: ‘curlbuild.h’ and ‘/build/curl/include/curl/curlbuild.h’ are the same file
/usr/bin/install: ‘curlrules.h’ and ‘/build/curl/include/curl/curlrules.h’ are the same file

The problem is your --prefix. It can't possibly work. If your goal is to
run curl from the source tree, then you can do that without running 'make
install' -- simply run 'src/curl'.
