Sorry, I don't understand how this could be. regex_internal.h's "#define 
gettext(msgid) msgid" line is in the else-part of the #if that #includes 
libintl.h in its then-part, so how can libintl.h's #define for gettext be active 
when regex_internal's #define is processed?

Thanks, I installed the attached (comment-only) patches to try to explain this 
better. The first just fixes a typo. The 2nd has a messed-up commit message that 
I didn't discover until after pushing - oh well, the ChangeLog file is right.
