gmake doesn't have an equivalent for .for, so you're stuck with making
a mess.

This you can probably do with
%.mv.cat: ${.CURDIR}/nls/%/mv.msg
gencat -new $@ $^
(for some suitable replacement for ${.CURDIR})

try
${patsubst %, install-%, ${LANGS}}: install-%:
${INSTALL} -c -o root -m 644 ${patsubst install-%, %.mv.cat, $@} \
${DESTDIR}${NLSDIR}/${patsubst install-%, %, $@}/mv.cat
beforeinstall: ${patsubst %, install-%, ${LANGS}}
but that might not work and in any event it's pretty gross.
You might be better off compiling bsd make on whatever box you're
using.
