patch: work-around command line limit for install-plugin rule
'make install' failed on an old SGI/IRIX/MIPS box. The install-plugin rule
tried to create a shell variable from the value of the $(PLUGIN_HEADERS) make
variable, and this produced a command line that was too much for the OS to
handle.
The attached patch, diff'ed against the 4.5 branch, implements a work-around.
Tested both on the SGI/IRIX box, and x86_64 Linux.
This issue is present in the main line/trunk as well.
