Details:

i'm having trouble with gnustep localization facilities.

first of all LOCALIZED_RESOURCE_FILES seems to be completely undocumented, no
mention on the website or in make/Documentation.

the problem is that XXX_LOCALIZED_RESOURCE_FILES does only work with files
residing in the same directory in as the GNUmakefile. it expects that the
Language.lproj folders are next to the GNUMakefile. however my *.lproj folders
are  in a subfolder (Resources/).

if thats not obvious, you can specify:
XXX_LOCALIZED_RESOURCE_FILES = Localized.strings
and it will pick up e.g.
=> English.lproj/Localized.strings.

but if English.lproj and the other localization folders are not in the current
path, but in the Resources/ subfolder how would you specify it?

XXX_LOCALIZED_RESOURCE_FILES = Resources/*.lproj/Localized.strings

that needs to be re-thought.

i'm currently working around the issue by not using LANGUAGES and
LOCALIZED_RESOURCE_FILES, but rather specifying the lproj folders right in
RESOURCE_FILES (so the full folders are copied), but that means i have to
strip those folders afterwards of files are not appropriate for the gnustep
version.
