Autoreconf fails on path ending with the string "m4"

[giuliobenetti]

In Buildroot if we build some package enabling gettext-tiny instead of gettext on a path containing string "m4" autoreconf fails. I point you Buildroot bug:
https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=12481

I'm trying to figure out what the problem is and eventually open a PR, but advice/suggestion is welcome.

Thanks

Could that be a place where this issue comes from?

https://github.com/sabotage-linux/gettext-tiny/blob/master/Makefile#L91

[hthiery]

make prefix=test-m4 install will show the issue

[giuliobenetti]

@hthiery thank you, yes that's the right point.
I've opened PR #49 for that. It should work fine. Hope it looks good.
