Another way is after running "./configure 
--prefix=/your_prefered_layout" and make, when running the "make 
install" command set the DESTDIR prefix to something like ~/asterisk and 
it will install everything under that prefix.

e.g $ make DESTDIR=$HOME/asterisk install
You can then make a tarball of the hierarchy from within the DESTDIR 
root and extract it into the right place (i.e. "/") of any other host.

Of course all this assumes:

1. you know what you are doing ;-)
2. your hosts are all using the same versions of kernels/libraries etc...
