why strange ?

the final installation dir is ${DESTDIR}${PREFIX}

for if you put
   DESTDIR="/tmp"
   --prefix=$HOME/curl

the result will be in  /tmp$HOME/curl alias /tmp/home/mosipov/curl

On asciidoc there is a mistake and the final dir is
   ${DESTDIR}/${PREFIX}

so if you define only
   --prefix=$HOME/curl
   and not DESTDIR

the final dir should be /$HOME/curl alias //home/mosipov/asciidoc
and cygwin rejects the leading "//" as they have a special meaning.
https://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#unc-paths

In that case the trick is
   DESTDIR="/"
  --prefix=$HOME/asciidoc

the result will be in  ///$HOME/asciidoc
  alias ///home/mosipov/asciidoc
  alias /home/mosipov/asciidoc

Marco
