Follow-up Comment #9:

I *believe* that the actual problem encountered by the original reporter of
this issue should be fully addressed by commits
f0d97fb5999427e41ed76f9d20451da392c03d27 and
4774e6bb311b95ed018150ff1d5b62056f2bc75e.  If issues still remain with the
interaction between autoreconf and current versions of gettext, please file a
new bug report.

The question of what autoreconf's scope should actually be, and the question
of how redistributors of software using autoconf should handle the
long-standing difference between what's in the VCS and what's in an
autotools-generated tarball, are probably best discussed on the mailing lists,
not here.  I don't have time to lead such a discussion at present.
