The same problem affects also FreeBSD and NetBSD.

Therefore I propose the following changes to the INSTALL file. Apart
from *BSD, it also treats the HP-UX and BeOS platforms. They are each
special in their own sense.

I'm going to use this patch in the next gettext release.

  you can use the `configure' options `--x-includes=DIR' and
  `--x-libraries=DIR' to specify their locations.
  
+ Particular Systems
+ ==================
+ 
+    On FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD, the compiler doesn't search include
+ files in /usr/local/include, and the linker doesn't search libraries in
+ /usr/local/lib.  Therefore some packages won't find other packages
+ installed earlier.  To overcome this problem, it is recommended to use
+ the following options:
+ 
+      env CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib ./configure
+ 
+    On HP-UX, the default C compiler is not ANSI C compatible.  If GNU CC
+ is not installed, it is recommended to use the following options in order
+ to use an ANSI C compiler:
+ 
+      env CC="cc -Ae" ./configure
+ 
+    On BeOS, user installed software goes in /boot/home/config, not
+ /usr/local.  It is recommended to use the following options:
+ 
+      CPPFLAGS=-I/boot/home/config/include LDFLAGS=-L/boot/home/config/lib \
+      ./configure --prefix=/boot/home/config
+
