Maxima 5.18 release branch; trouble w/ bootstrap



Hello,

I've tagged a branch for the Maxima 5.18 release in CVS.
Base = release-5_18-base, branch = RELEASE-5_18-BRANCH.

In a clean sandbox, I find that "sh bootstrap" complains that
the locale directory missing. I then tried ./configure and it
complains that Makefile.in is missing (probably a
consequence of the first error).

Can someone fix it the build stuff or tell me how to do it?
Please commit any fixes to the release branch first, we
can copy them to the trunk when we get it figured out.

Any commits to the trunk can proceed without interruption.

best
