If you don't specify a prefix with --prefix, typically everything is
thrown into /usr/local. Try this:
# ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
That should make the build more LSB friendly, but will mix binaries with
the RPM package binaries already in /usr/sbin and elsewhere.
Your best bet is to get the SRPM file for the package, install it, edit
the .spec file to build with the configure flags you need (with the
tsize option for example), and then rpm -bb the .spec file to build a
real RPM.
