Oh! I forgot about local patch that removes this one... it's from 2006 
commited with log message:

"- don't preselect AM_GNU_GETTEXT_INTL_SUBDIR, it breaks 
AM_GNU_GETTEXT([external])"

Not sure if the "breaks AM_GNU_GETTEXT([external])" is still there because I 
don't even remember what that issue really was. I guess something didn't work 
well if there was no (need for internal) intl subdirectory.

Sorry for a noise ! Please ignore this bugreport.

xfs inside of vserver guest

pdksh with tons of patches. Closest pdksh to mine is available in Debian.
