The previous patch changes the logic of the if-then blocks.  The install
commands shouldn't run at all if ${INSTALLDIR} is the current directory.

The following version keeps the same behavior, and touches a smaller
part of the Makefile too :)

--- patch begins here -----------------------------------------------------
Unbreak `make install' in leim/ when leim's ${INSTALLDIR} doesn't exist.

What was happening with the old shell script called by the `install'
target was kind of tricky.  The command:

    if [ x`(cd ${INSTALLDIR} && /bin/pwd)` != x`(/bin/pwd)` ] ; then
      if [ -d ${INSTALLDIR} ] ; then \

contains a backquoted `cd' command into a directory which may not exist.
This causes the /bin/sh shell on Solaris (possibly other systems too),
to abort the entire if-then compound statement, because the `cd' command
fails before the if-then statement has a chance to run at all (i.e. at
backquote-expansion time).

Switching the order of the two if-then checks ensures that `cd' will
only run if ${INSTALLDIR} *really* exists, and `make install' in leim/
works again.
