In fact, in GNU sed I work around this with

AC_DEFUN([AM_MKINSTALLDIRS], [MKINSTALLDIRS="$mkdir_p" 
AC_SUBST(MKINSTALLDIRS)])
AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION(0.14)
AM_GNU_GETTEXT(no-libtool, need-ngettext, ../intl)
AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS([gettext-fix], [
 sed -e "/^mkinstalldirs *=/a\\
install_sh=$install_sh" \
     -e 's/^mkinstalldirs *=.*/mkinstalldirs=$(MKINSTALLDIRS)/' \
     intl/Makefile > intl/Makefile.tmp
 mv intl/Makefile.tmp intl/Makefile
 sed -e "/^mkinstalldirs *=/a\\
install_sh=$install_sh" \
     -e 's/^mkinstalldirs *=.*/mkinstalldirs=$(MKINSTALLDIRS)/' \
     po/Makefile > po/Makefile.tmp
 mv po/Makefile.tmp po/Makefile], [
 install_sh="$install_sh"])
