No, for some of those files (e.g., m4/extern-inline.m4), gettext copied the 
files from gnulib, and gnulib has always been the primary location for them. 
For others of those files (e.g., m4/intdiv0.m4), I think Bruno wrote them and 
contributed them to gettext first, but gnulib is a more-logical home for them, 
as they're not about character sets or translations.

How about the following list of .m4 files to be maintained in gettext?

codeset.m4
gettext.m4
iconv.m4
intldir.m4
intl.m4
intlmacosx.m4
lcmessage.m4
nls.m4
po.m4

The remaining .m4 files can be maintained in gnulib and used unmodified in 
gettext.
