Hi,

I ran into a problem with a patch to GStreamer with an AVR32 target.  My 
coworker ran into the exact same problem with a GeodeLX target.

The problem is the po-makefile-fix.patch, which looks like:
--- gstreamer-0.10.17.orig/po/Makefile.in.in    2008-01-25 23:21:31.000000000 
+0800
+++ gstreamer-0.10.17/po/Makefile.in.in 2008-03-20 19:10:54.000000000 +0800
@@ -30,7 +30,7 @@
 INSTALL = @INSTALL@
 INSTALL_DATA = @INSTALL_DATA@

-mkinstalldirs = $(SHELL) `case "$(MKINSTALLDIRS)" in /*) 
echo "$(MKINSTALLDIRS)" ;; *) echo "$(top_builddir)/$(MKINSTALLDIRS)" ;; 
esac`
+mkinstalldirs = $(MKINSTALLDIRS)

 GMSGFMT = @GMSGFMT@
 MSGFMT = @MSGFMT@


"make install" fails in the po/ directory with this patch applied.  It works 
great if don't apply the patch.  

What is the purpose of this patch?  I don't see how GStreamer could 
successfully build with this patch.  Is there a companion patch that is 
missing?
