Hello,

I commited a fix for this.  help2man is wrapped by the "missing" script,
so I removed "if MAINTAINER_MODE".

BTW: I have also added two files to intl/, to fix distcheck.
And I removed one hack from top level Makefile.am, distcheck still pases.

Off topic:  I'd like to remove AM_MAINTAINER_MODE altogether, I think
the people who break timestamps should fix _their_ problem themselves.
(Karl, you don't have to answer to this cry I understand it's an annoying
issue.)

Actually, it was easy to make use of the Texinfo dual build hack,
to get the man page rules correct even for cross compilation.

Have a nice day,
