This is a minor patch for two items that affect portability to DJGPP.
The first is a change to aclocal.m4 from "test -f" to "test -x". This
but "test -x" isn't portable.
(I seem to recall that autoconf has some check for this feature in one of
the versions, will look into that).
is important because if testing for "xgettext" and a file exists
called "xgettext.exe", "test -f" fails and "test -x" succeeds. Since
the line in aclocal.m4 is testing for an executable file, the change
shouldn't affect other platforms adversely. Without the patch, the
lynx configuration script doesn't find the utilities needed for NLS.
The change will be propagated to "configure" when autoconf is run.
The second is changing some very old code which excluded DJGPP from
using the envirnonment variable "LYNX_LOCALEDIR". This was probably
put in by me several years ago, although I don't remember exactly when
or why. I just did some testing and DJGPP NLS works fine with the code
enabled.
thanks
