Hi, i knew about that error like one or two weeks ago, but the only
thing i did is to use --prefix='' and all builds fine, also i have
made a SlackBuild for that and the last version too, you can find them
here:
http://hba.nonlogic.org/projects/slackbuilds/ntfs-3g-1.2129
http://hba.nonlogic.org/projects/slackbuilds/ntfs-3g-1.2216

Also, at this moment i don't have a ntfs dev, so if someone can test
it to see if it works, could be great to know it :) Before make use of
them, please read
http://hba.nonlogic.org/projects/slackbuilds/README.WARNING

The reason why we have use '/' as prefix since some versions ago is
because both fuse and ntfs-3g developers seems to want them in '/',
not in '/usr' and also this make sense cause as programs that let you
have access to a file system both need to be in the /, if for some
reason you can't mount '/usr' you have the programs in '/' to mount
another partition/dev, just like 'reiserfsprogs', 'jfsutils' and
'xfs*' packages.
