There must be a mkdir -p missing somewhere. E.g.:

[46774035@Devin's MacBook Pro blis]$configure -tomp -p $(pwd)/install auto
...
[46774035@Devin's MacBook Pro blis]$make
...
[46774035@Devin's MacBook Pro blis]$make install

D'oh. I'm on a case-insensitive filesystem and there is an INSTALL file. Thanks a lot Apple!

Apple copied this from DOS/Windows. You can make macOS case sensitive but then Microsoft Office won't work because its developers don't use case consistently because they don't have to on Windows.
