When building with path containing "m4/" occurence(i.e. make
O=output-m4) gettext-tiny install recipe copies files to wrong place and
later some package using autotools fail to autoreconf(i.e. minicom).
This is due to buggy gettext-tiny Makefile install recipe where they
substitute every "m4/" in INSTALL destination path, including the "m4/"
part of our build folder. Add patch to fix this by using sed instead of
$(subst ...) to substitute only last "m4/" occurence in path.

Fixes:

As I suggested on your upstream pull-request, what about:

    -	$(INSTALL) -D -l ../$(subst $(datarootdir)/,,$(datadir))/$< $(subst m4/,,$@)
    +	$(INSTALL) -D -l ../$(subst $(datarootdir)/,,$(datadir))/$< $(patsubst %m4/,%,$@)

Yann E. MORIN.

+Actually Makefile install recipe substitutes every occurence of "m4/" in
