Configure problem--Gnucash-docs & Makefile.in

The gnucash-docs tarball has no directory named "help/c".  It DOES have
a directory named "help/C".  I have no idea where "help/c" came from
on your system unless your system did something strange during the
unpackaging.

> In each case, the C directory was empty, while the c directory was not.

That is not what's in the tarball.

That's because you returned the directory structure to the original
state that's in the tarball.
