I had this problem:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.utils.bugs/16929
Here's a proposed work-around, while we wait for an upstream
change that fixes Makefile.in.in or at least lets us configure
the offending rule.

* bootstrap.conf (bootstrap_epilogue): Replace the offending grep
command from po/Makefile.in.in's $(DOMAIN).pot-update rule.
