When I try to build cdrdao, it fails on libintl.h:

'gaze from /usr/include/libintl.h' gives glibc as source for libintl.h. I've 
searched the net and it seems that some programs only build with the 
gettext version of libintl.h

Looking at gettext's BUILD file, it looks as if libtinl.h is filtered from 
it. So we made the choice to go with glibc's version of it.

Anybody else with this problem? Thoughts on workaround? (apart from the 
obvious one -> manually unpack gettext and put its libintl.h over the 
current one for the duration of this compile)
