[bug-gettext] gettext 0.19.1: install step problems

[Christian Weisgerber]

While installing gettext 0.19.1 on OpenBSD 5.5, I ran into two
problems during the install step:

(1)
The install in gettext-tools/intl fails trying to install ChangeLog.inst,
which does not exist.  Since we copy everything else over from
gettext-runtime/intl, maybe we want that ChangeLog as well?

The post-install removal of libgettextlib.a and libgettextsrc.a
suffers from a race condition:

  # No need to install libgettextlib.a, except on AIX.
  install-exec-local: install-libLTLIBRARIES install-exec-clean

With make -jN, the prerequisites are not necessarily made in sequence.
In practice, plain "make" removed the libs, "make -j4" reproducibly
didn't because install-exec-clean was run before install-libLTLIBRARIES.
