You should not need the /srcdir argument. You should, however, set a 
prefix. I would do something like the following:

cd /test2
mkdir build
cd build
../SN452-source/configure --prefix=/test2/install
make all-snavigator
make install-snavigator

And I really recommend working with SN5.0; it's a lot better.
