Using libintl.a in own programs

Starting with version 0.9.4 the library libintl.h should be self-contained. I.e., you can use it in your own programs without providing additional functions. The `Makefile' will put the header and the library in directories selected using the $(prefix).

One exception of the above is found on HP-UX systems. Here the C library does not contain the alloca function (and the HP compiler does not generate it inlined). But it is not intended to rewrite the whole library just because of this dumb system. Instead include the alloca function in all package you use the libintl.a in.
