This is a bit of a hack.

The root problem is that po/Makefile.in.in that is supposed to be copied 
from gettext/intltool is shipped in an ancient version.

AM_GNU_GETTEXT would provide a DATADIRNAME definition,
but AM_GNU_GETTEXT is not used.

A better change would be:

apt-get source mssh
cd mssh-2.2
intltoolize -f -c
dpkg-source --commit

This generates a patch that copies exactly the outdated file from 
/usr/share/intltool/Makefile.in.in, and the changes are small enough
that the release team shouldn't have a problem with this change.
