Committed a patch for this in both head and 0.8.1 branch.
The --with-gnashexe configure switch is deprecated by this patch
and both NSAPI and KPARTS plugin will use ${bindir} by default for GNASHBINDIR.

I found out that GNASHEXE is set only from firefox.m4, in a macro which is likely only invoked if the NSAPI plugin is going to be built. So basically --enable-gui=kde will NOT set that variable..

Also, firefox.m4 has support for a --with-gnashexe configure switch to change the value of that variable.

I think we may drop the whole thing and always invoke gnash from the ${bindir} ... anyway, last word to rob, having added comments in that file saying something about some use for that switch when cross-compiling.

This is a blocker for 0.8.1 final !
Thanks for pointing out Felix.

When gtk gui is not built (e.g. --enable-gui=kde), GNASHEXE will not be correctly set in plugins/Makefile and plugins/klash/Makefile ("GNASHEXE =").
The konqueror plugin will therefore try to call '/kde-gnash' and fail.
