Probably I'm crazy, but maybe gettext should simply be removed from gnulib? Then users could update it through the standard gettext-provided mechanisms without any interference from gnulib, and conversely. I admit I've never been clear on what is gained by having gettext in gnulib, since typically (always?) gettext files are not updated between releases anyway. It sure adds a lot of complexity for everyone. -k
