+>> Thinking about this more and perhaps this is incorrect? Or more accurately, I may have been using `DESTDIR` incorrectly. I'm unsure. I don't currently have access to the correct build environment but my best recollection is that I was using the `DESTDIR` to set base install directory for multiple working copies. Of course, the `DESTDIR` is normally a staging install for the root directory (i.e. not normally visible during runtime). I'm not 100% on the use of `DESTDIR` but perhaps you are? Otherwise, leave this, and I'll adjust that build environment to rework the `PREFIX` variable instead. -- [[ttw]]

Also, the `po/Makefile` presumes the use of `make`, explicitly. If you use another build tool it fails (ironically I was actually using `gmake` in non-gnu environment so it wasn't aliased to `make`). Switch from the explicit call to the generic recall variable `$(MAKE)`.
