gettext-0.13 -- 'make check' problems

[Peter Breitenlohner]

Hi,

I just fetched and built the new gettext-0.13 (as usual with VPATH,
i.e. outside the source tree).

During 'make check' I got two FAIL's, here some relevant output:

........
PASS: lang-objc
./prog.sh: line 5: gettext.sh: Aucun fichier ou r?pertoire de ce type
FAIL: lang-sh
./prog.sh: line 5: gettext.sh: Aucun fichier ou r?pertoire de ce type
./prog.sh: line 12: ?Votre commande, s'il vous plait?, dit le gar?on.: command 
not found
./prog.sh: line 1: eval_ngettext: command not found
./prog.sh: line 14: : command not found
FAIL: lang-bash
PASS: lang-python-1
........
PASS: lang-rst
=======================
2 of 219 tests failed
(10 tests were not run)
=======================
........


attached are some files left in the gettext-tools/tests directory (in the
build tree) which may be relevant: prog.sh, prog.nok, and prog.err

We have bash-2.05b installed.

I am sure these tests are not intended to fail.

-----------------------------------

It looks as if these two tests are not adapted to the possibility that
builddir and srcdir are not the same, but since the earlier tests in
autoconf-lib-link/tests take almost infinite time I haven't checked this.
