Hmm, I'm trying to get to the bottom of this.  Thanks for the heads up.  I
remember seeing the error only when compiling findutils, which uses the
canonicalize; maybe the error stemmed from a combination of modules in use
at the same time, in which it is not canonicalize that directly depends on
LIBINTL, but one of the other modules which it was interacting with.  I'll
see if I can reproduce the actual failure, by temporarily reverting that
patch.
