This test program is generated according to gettext.m4. It's a bug of old version gettext, and it's fixed in gettext-0.14.4.
Unfortunately, there are several other bugs in m4 files inherited as a result of our choice of gettext.

But this hunk would likely break out-of-the-box building of libvirt on RHEL 5 and CentOS, if they don't have new enough gettext.
I just confirmed that RHEL 5.6 and CentOS now ship with gettext-0.17; as does the latest cygwin. We obviously can't go to the latest upstream of 0.18.1.1 because it would alienate several live supported distros, but I see no point of limiting ourselves to 0.14.x if moving all the way to 0.17 works. Are any other popular distros stuck on something older than 0.17? -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
