There is a small omission in bash 5.0's build infrastructure:
The CPPFLAGS variable doesn't propagate to the actual compiler flags
used to build the loadables. In practice, this means that the seq
loadable will fail to build on operating systems that have libintl
outside the default paths (e.g. OpenBSD with GNU gettext in /usr/local):
cc -fPIC -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DSHELL -DDEV_FD_STAT_BROKEN -O2 -pipe
-Wno-parentheses -Wno-format-security -I. -I.. -I../.. -I../../lib

-I/usr/obj/bash-5.0.2/bash-5.0/lib -I/usr/obj/bash-5.0.2/bash-5.0/builtins -c
-o seq.o seq.c
