No, I'm going to fix gettext, thankyouverymuch.  the thing that scares 
me, is I like to keep gettext, in particular, synced up with the 
official version.  the reason is because gettextize is used to install 
the actual source code into a target package.  By changing the code on 
cygwin, anyone maintaining a package on cygwin will generate different 
dist tarballs than if they were maintaining it on linux.  Badness.

So, I dunno if I should fold the change into our distribution and then 
push it to Bruno, or push it to Bruno and simply update cygwin's version 
when Bruno releases 0.11.6
