Levente, is there anyway you can use the CVS repository on
http://sourceware.cygnus.com/libstdc++/download.html
'msgfmt' is part of the texinfo stuff. If you check out the 'gcc' module
then there should be a 'texinfo' directory. If you make that dir, (or
even configure just that dir) you'll have msgfmt.
Having said that, I've noticed some versioning issues with the current
texinfo and the gcc/po files, so you may want to use a current
texinfo/msgfmt instead of the one currently in the gcc tree. I believe
you can find this information on gnu.org's site.
best,
benjamin
