Yes, exactly.
IMHO this is good practice: the upstream package makes all the
directories configurable
and once you know the platform, you hardcode everything to avoid
relying on guessing.
Given how popular this macro is and how explicit the name is I doubt
there will be
any name clash. It would also be less intrusive than having all the
package looking for
CATKIN_BUILD_BINARY_PACKAGE and hence introducing Catkin-specific mechanisms
upstream.
