The only file that matches that pattern is libopentoken.dll, which needs
to be in the bin directory on Windows (as the comment says).

Patches for linux welcome, but my general approach is to leave
installation to the platform installer packages.

It's computed starting on line 6:

INSTALL_DIR ?= $(dir $(shell which gnatls))..
prefix=$(INSTALL_DIR)
I_BIN = $(prefix)/bin

so it has to exist if you can compile OpenToken
