Essentially, this is already provided in the --program-transform-name option of configure; you can install locate with a different name. Failing that, you can use whatever mechanism the distribution you're using has to support this.
I beleive those distributions already have a mechanism for handling this situation, though.
Would it be possible to add a configure option, such as --without-locate, to disable building/installing locate and updatedb for use by those distros/individuals who want to use a locate/updatedb alternative such as slocate or mlocate?
