this is due to the fact that we use different versions of gettext and
different gettext versions are not 100% compatible it seems.

AFAIK this shouldn't happen with a tar ball (perhaps you could test it),
since there you won't run autogen.sh and all gettext files/scripts
should be included already and should be generated by the same gettext
version?
