Looks like your .m4 files and Makefile.in.in are from gettext-0.18
and that ubuntu system has gettext-0.17.
The Ubuntu system has gettext 0.18.1.1.
Our configure.ac has AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION([0.17])
gettext.m4 is from gettext 0.18 (seems that this is not part of what
we ship in libguestfs, but it gets generated by something, because
this file is different on my Fedora machine - 0.17 there).
This is a big mess ... I'm going to try removing
AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION completely.
Personally I've never understood why gettext can't be an ordinary
library.
