This does not quite do what I want. If you have done "make distclean"
and then done a new configure, you have lost libintl.a. "make mutt" does
not create libintl.a. You have to "cd intl; make", and then "make mutt"
works. Maybe the fact that this does not work is a bug in the
construction of the main Makefile. This was with 1.2.5.
