I think this was the first thing Bruno fixed after gettext-0.15 was
released:
| 2006-07-24  Bruno Haible  <address@hidden>

|         * m4/fixautomake.m4 (FIX_MAKEFILE_TOPDIR_DISTRIB): Protect the initial

You could probably work around it easiest by using GNU sed (put it early
in your $PATH).

Cheers,
Ralf
