RE: make check for make-3.80rc2 on HP-UX (1 fail), AIX (ok) and S olaris (ok)

[Jerome Zago]

After installing gettext-0.11.5, I can no longer reproduce
the FAILED for the fourth test. Instead it works fine with
gcc 3.1 and it crashes with gcc 3.0.4. I don't bother that
much about gcc 3.0.4 therefore the following report is just
for your information.
