Make fails in po directory

No, they are installed.  It's just not finding them.

I found the problem, though (I think -- I'm rebuilding now):
$ -> export CPP_FLAGS="-I/opt/local/include"
$ -> export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/local/lib"
$ -> export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/local/lib"

Accidentally spelled it CPP_FLAGS, not CPPFLAGS.

I don't have a lot of experience with autoconf (I'm a Java guy), but  
is this something ./configure is expected to catch?  It would be nice  
if configure failed right away, rather than waiting for the  
mysterious failure during make.
