If you are attempting to install gettext 0.14.1, the INSTALLPREFIX macro
should be defined in gettext-runtime/config.h.

If you are attempting to install a program which borrows the intl/ directory
from GNU gettext, the part of relocatable.c which uses INSTALLPREFIX should
not be compiled: it depends on defined(PIC), and why would a package need
to compile intl/* in PIC mode? Only GNU gettext shall install libintl.so;
other packages shouldn't do that.

Btw, next time please also say on which system you observe the problem:
Many build dependent things are system dependent, and not everyone is using
Linux.
