Thanks, I've done this for the following files:
gettext-runtime/intl-csharp/Makefile.am
gettext-runtime/intl-java/Makefile.am
gettext-tools/**/Makefile.am
gnulib-local/modules/libglib
gnulib-local/modules/libxml
However, I've left gettext-runtime/intl/Makefile.in and
gettext-runtime/po/Makefile.in.in untouched, since 'gettextize' script
supports Automake 1.8 or later and I'm not sure if we can safely bump
the required version. Any suggestions?
Regards,
