Details:

On cygwin, compilation of the fresh 4.2.24 tarball fails, because regextype
doesn't define program_name, and doesn't link with the gettext library.

gcc  -g2   -o regexprops.exe  regexprops.o regextype.o
../gnulib/lib/libgnulib.a 
regextype.o: In function `get_regex_type':
/home/eblake/findutils-4.2.24/lib/regextype.c:114: undefined reference to
`_libintl_gettext'
../gnulib/lib/libgnulib.a(error.o): In function `error':
/home/eblake/findutils-4.2.24/gnulib/lib/error.c:214: undefined reference to
`_program_name'
../gnulib/lib/libgnulib.a(error.o): In function `error_at_line':
/home/eblake/findutils-4.2.24/gnulib/lib/error.c:274: undefined reference to

../gnulib/lib/libgnulib.a(xalloc-die.o): In function `xalloc_die':
/home/eblake/findutils-4.2.24/gnulib/lib/xalloc-die.c:38: undefined reference
to `_libintl_gettext'
../gnulib/lib/libgnulib.a(quotearg.o): In function `gettext_quote':
/home/eblake/findutils-4.2.24/gnulib/lib/quotearg.c:168: undefined reference
to `_libintl_gettext'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [regexprops.exe] Error 1

This patch fixes the program_name complaint, but I'm not sure of the automake
magic needed to fix regexprop's use of gettext to correctly pull in libintl.
