That doesn't seem to work so great. :/

For example on 64-bit OSX here, after grabbing the updated .gnulib
then removing gettext (without adding "pkg-config" to the buildreq line
in bootstap.conf), running autogen.sh gives:

***************************************
$ ./autogen.sh

Adding gettext back in, but then adding "pkg-config" to the
buildreq line in bootstrap.conf gives:

***************************************

$ ./autogen.sh
running bootstrap...

I'd suspect that the updated .gnulib wasn't being used,
however I'm blowing away the gnulib/ directory in libvirt
first (rm -rf gnulib), then manually running bootstrap to force the
update so I can _see_ it copy stuff from .gnulib. ;>

Any ideas?
