"make reinstall" (or when you install it over an existing
insallation). It still has the problem of not being able to find some
of the entries (e.g., mail-files) but these are not fatal, at least
not during installation).
While I'm here, line up all info dir entries to the same tabstop.

This is a long/off_t printf problem.
The only problem with doing this, is that touching the sources with patch
causes it to want to go and regenerate it's locale databases using some
gnu tools I've never heard of before. :-( Since patch-ac doesn't actually
change any messages, I've cheated and touched the dependency files in
post-patch. Please, no pukeing, I know it's a gross hack. ;-)
