The recommended way to solve this conflict is documented in the gnulib manual:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/html_node/gettextize-and-autopoint.html>
I'm feeling that letting the user put different versions of gettext.m4,
lock.m4, etc. into his working tree and then relying on 'aclocal' to sort
it out is too risky. For example, the user may omit a -I option in some
particular subdirectory; then 'aclocal' may choose the older version without
complaining. It is better if the user has only one version of gettext.m4
in his working tree.
