mscore and custom install

I use mandriva 2010.2 and I compile mscore from svn.
I have installed mscore in /local/stow/mscore-devel.
When I start mscore, some messages are printed in the console:

Can't open '/usr/local/share/mscore-1.0//sound/aeolus/stops/Aeolus/definition' for reading
Can't open '/usr/local/share/mscore-1.0//sound/aeolus/stops/Aeolus/presets' for reading
Sym: character 0x1d15f(119135) are not in font
Unable to open file "/home/ws/sfont/FluidR3.SF2"
Unable to open file "/usr/local/share/mscore-1.0//sound/TimGM6mb.sf2"

It seems that when mscore is installed in a custom directory, it still looks for data in /usr/local/...

First I configured mscure using cmake:

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/local/stow/mscore-devel ....
make
and then, as a root user: make install

For this issue, there is also a problem with locales. When installed in a custom directory, mscore is not able to read the translations.
Here is the log I've got in debug mode:

/local/stow/mscore-devel/bin/mscore -d
global share:
configured localeName
real localeName
### THE LOCALE DIRECTORY SHOULD BE /local/stow/mscore-devel/share/mscore-2.0/.... (AND NOT mscore-1.0).

Can't open '/usr/local/share/mscore-1.0//sound/aeolus/stops/Aeolus/definition' for reading
