I think the following would make the build more friendly:
1. configure check for libtool
Otherwise upon "make" after a successful "./configure" one can get
cd . && aclocal
aclocal: configure.in: 33: macro `AM_PROG_LIBTOOL' not found in library
make: *** [aclocal.m4] Error 1
2. more intelligent LINGUAS handling
On my Red Hat 6.1 install, LINGUAS is set to "en" during a GNOME
login, which causes the build process to fail in the po directory.
(A console login sets LANG and LINGUAS to "en_US" which does not cause
any problems with the build. Installed are Red Hat's gnome-core-1.0.54-2,
gnome-libs-1.0.54-1, and gdm-2.0beta2-13.)
Perhaps configure could check that LINGUAS is set to something legal?
If not, then at least rpm/gnucash.spec.in should be changed to "unset
LINGUAS" before "./configure".
