This should be entirely sufficient to make libs in /GNU/lib known to
subsequent builds. (Assuming you exported the variables from the shell,
of course.)

Since this did not work, the next step is to take a look at the config.log
file. It contains, in particular, compiler error messages that might have
made the test fail.

This is not a problem.

gettext.h is there so that developers can incorporate it in their packages.
It is *not* meant to be copied into $prefix/include/.
