Hej!

There seems to be a problem with the new version. It makes the MERGE
rules not be substituted correctly in the Makefile.

Example:

What should be:

%.oaf : %.oaf.in $(top_builddir)/xml-i18n-merge $(top_srcdir)/po/*.po
	$(top_builddir)/xml-i18n-merge -o $(top_srcdir)/po $< $*.oaf

Becomes:

\%.oaf : \%.oaf.in $(top_builddir)/xml-i18n-merge $(top_srcdir)/po/*.po
	$(top_builddir)/xml-i18n-merge -o $(top_srcdir)/po $< $*.oaf

I.e. the back slashes are left in, which makes it not actually do
anything with the oaf.in files. Try removing the oaf-files from e.g
nautilus and do make, then it will complain about no rule to make the
oaf file or some such.

I have tried to find the error but couldn't.

Vänliga hälsningar :)
Richard
