:This patch passes --with-gnustepdir to configure and installs WPrefs into
:${PREFIX}/share/GNUStep/Applications/WPrefs.app/ where WindowMaker seems
:to expect it to be.

Except putting it in ${PREFIX}/share/GNUStep/ is not backwards compatible
for people who had old pkg-based configs (where it went in ${PREFIX}/GNUStep)

Secondly, your patch has 

:-		${SED} "s|/usr/local|${PREFIX}|g" $$f > $$f.new && \
:+		${SED} -e "s|/usr/local|${PREFIX}|g" \
:+		       -e "s|${PREFIX}/GNUstep|${PREFIX}/share/GNUstep|g" \
                                                                  ^ small s

Thirdly, this is looking very similar to pr#30703 which I sent in a
couple of months ago.
