It doesn't come from gnulb-tool nor autopoint, but from the gnulib module
called 'gettext'. The -Iintl option there is generally safe, except that
coreutils activates lots of GCC warnings plus -Werror.

This -Iintl option will disappear with gettext version 0.19 - because
then "gettextize --intl" will not work any more; it's already deprecated.
