You have the option to choose where it installs as part of ./configure. If you didn't tell configure any --prefix in particular, it probably chose /usr/local as jim said. This is probably a smart default for custom builds since, as you've found, it's not in PATH and seldom used, so unlikely to install overtop of anything else. But if you want it to install in standard locations, you need to set the prefix before you build.
