This problem seems to be the way configure is checking for xgettext. The switch --copyright-holder isn't a valid option for my xgettext.

For example - we require autoconf 2.50 (enforced in configure.in), yet my autogen.sh script uses features only found in autoconf 2.53. - we can compile using gettext 10.x and 11.x, but we're using a mix of 10.x and 11.x features. I'd like to requie the following versions of GNU components - can you forsee any problems on Debian (or any other platforms)? autoconf 2.53 automake 1.5 or 1.6 (not sure which yet) gettext 11.x -- Matt Emmerton |

It looks like only the BSD camp (FreeBSD and OS X) are using the newer version of the GNU tools (autoconf 2.5x in particular.) I'll put this on the back-burner for now, and make sure everything works error-free with the 2.13 / 1.4 / 0.10 toolset.
