Okay the problem appears to be the change in POTFILES.in isn't causing the
POTFILES to be updated first. Instead make is trying to build lyx.pot
when it should be rebuilding Makefile. Actually it should have built
Makefile right in the first place -- for now you can just:
cd po
rm POTFILES
make POTFILES
cd -
make
and it should work (it does here). and I'll continue with trying to fix
the initial building of Makefile.
