Worst yet...

Nope. No Autoconf macro require such as acconfig.h.

You should complain to the person who is responsible for this, and I
must say I don't know. Maybe indeed the newest Gettext creates this
file, which is extremely unwelcome. But in any case, note that these
are only warnings.
Gettextize should use the 3 args form of AC_DEFINE. I don't know why
you'd have an acconfig.h. IIRC, it's not even from 2.50, it's from 2.13.
