I have here a working gettext library. This is a patched version,
which I don't want to make as a "ported to DJGPP version" of the
gettext library, because it is merged together the utils from
the standalone gettext package and the library from the fileutils,
because this is newer.
Now my question: Is there an interest for it? If yes, I would upload
it to DJ's incoming as a zip together with a small example, how to
use it.

But there is a conflict, which I don't know, how to solve.
Every program, which want to use the gettext lib and the conio
functions has a name confilict with the function 'gettext()'.
(I had this problem, as I built Eli's fileutils with the gettext
lib)
In my opinion, the conio gettext() should be reanamed to an
other name, because it is DJGPP specific and shoud not conflict
with a function, which can be used on many other platforms.
