I suspect that your copied gettext m4 files are overwritten by
autoreconf, when regenerating ./configure.  To avoid that, you could do:

- skip the autopoint invocation by autoreconf, by:
  AUTOPOINT=true ./autoreconf ..., or
- update AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION to 0.19.8, either by hand or by
  gettextize
