According to Jim Meyering on 2/13/2008 4:00 AM:
| I noticed that something about these changes causes
| trouble with coreutils builds (albeit merely because it
| runs the new test-quotearg program from gnulib):

Aargh.  I tested ENABLE_NLS on cygwin, and while I tested on Linux, I
guess I never quite triggered ENABLE_NLS testing there.

| ../../gnulib-tests/test-quotearg.c:218: error: conflicting types for
'dcgettext'

OK, I see it now.  On Linux, <libintl.h> includes:

#if defined __OPTIMIZE__ && !defined __cplusplus
# define gettext(msgid) dgettext (NULL, msgid)
# define dgettext(domainname, msgid) \
~  dcgettext (domainname, msgid, LC_MESSAGES)

| I used the following patch to fix those and a couple other warnings,
| but even with that, when the test actually runs, it gets a failed
| assertion.  I'll look into that later.

Your patch isn't quite right.

|  #if ENABLE_NLS
|  /* True if the locale should be faked.  */
|  static bool fake_locale;
| +#undef gettext
| +#define dgettext(a,b) tq_dgettext(a,b)

This breaks the test on cygwin, where <libintl.h> comes from gettext, and
does #define gettext libintl_gettext.  By undefining it, cygwin then gets
either a link error when quotearg.o tries to use libintl_gettext (or if
gnulib-tool's --po-domain was in effect, when it tries to use
libintl_dgettext), or gets a runtime assertion since we no longer did the
desired override.

Meanwhile, on Linux, since quotearg.o ends up calling dcgettext, but
test-quotearg did not supply it, we are not getting the desired fake
translation (the final two rounds of testing get C behavior rather than
locale behavior, explaining the assertion you saw).

The trick is coming up with the right declarations so that we satisfy
quotearg.o's link dependencies, in spite of all the macro declarations
present in <libintl.h>.  When coupled with your warning fixes, does this
work for you instead?
