Try:
--enable-build-localization

It should work better.

It is normal.
I have been working on this lately. You can now build Scilab it self
(dyn library + scilab-bin binary). However, it still requires some work
to be able to build macros + doc this way. But it should be pretty fast
to fix.
Revision: 27636
http://viewvc.scilab.org/bin/cgi/viewvc.cgi?limit_changes=100&view=rev&revision=27636
configure.ac & */*/Makefile.am are the interesting files.

Thanks again for point this out!
