4.4 - Nearing the finish line [was Re: inconsistency between 4.4-cvs and 4.5 for default install]

[sfeam (E. Merritt) <eam...@gm...>]

Although I think a 4.4.0 release is nearly ready, I have encountered
a couple of last-minute glitches.

1) Sometime between the 4.4.0-rc1 tarball creation and the current 
   4.4 cvs, the targets "make clean" and "make distclean" have broken.

   This is just really strange.  It doesn't stop you from building and
   installing the program - but you can't clean up afterwards.
   And it causes packaging errors from "make distcheck".

2) The x11 app-defaults file

  I've now changed it to install under ${pkgdatadir} and put notes in 
  INSTALL and NEWS.
