libexecdir (non)usage

Hi,

gettext installs a couple programs in $(libdir)/gettext, that fit far
better in $(libexecdir)/gettext as per the GNU Coding Standards.  I
can submit a patch for this if anyone wants, but it is a minimal
change so I haven't bothered.

`libexecdir'
     The directory for installing executable programs to be run by other
     programs rather than by users.  This directory should normally be
     `/usr/local/libexec', but write it as `$(exec_prefix)/libexec'.
     (If you are using Autoconf, write it as address@hidden@'.)

Cheerio!
