Re: though m4 supports DESTDIR, parts go to /

Hi Dennis,

Thanks for the report.  Looks like you are using a more than 5 year old
alpha release tarball, which bootstrapped with GNU Gettext 0.10.35, which
in turn didn't support DESTDIR.

Either re-gettextize your sources, or get a fresh set from savannah.gnu.org
CVS.
