Subject: Build phase fails for non-linux systems ("en.gmo")
Making the distributions fails on non-linux systems. On freebsd systems, the error is: make: don't know how to make en.gmo. Stop Maybe this is a BSD make vs. GNU make issue, or something else.

I checked: yes, the makefile only works with FreeBSD's gmake, but not with the standard BSD make. As gmake is only optionally installed, and it's not easy to change the make program when installing via CPAN.pm or cpanm, I suggest to rewrite the makefile to be compatible with all makes.
