Ahm - thanks, I see what you mean now :-)

The issue is related, but slightly different.  Your GNUmakefile always had 
xxx_HAS_RESOURCE_BUNDLE=yes, until David changed it to YES on 2008-03-06. ;-)

gnustep-make has always accepted "yes" for the xxx_HAS_RESOURCE_BUNDLE flag,
since its first introduction in 2002. :-)

But I suspect David was confused by the fact that xxx_NEEDS_GUI (a new flag)
requires "YES" instead of "yes" - which actually does sound like a bad
idea (since it's inconsistent with everything else!) and might be worth 
fixing before the release! ;-)

So I'll fix the new xxx_NEEDS_GUI flag to accept "yes" instead of "YES", like
everything else.  Well, maybe I'll have it accept both "yes" and "YES" for now.

Thanks
