This file is in CVS to ensure it is in release tarballs: whereas most
Bison-generated files are generated by a bootstrap run from the release
script, this one wouldn't be if the RM's system has GNU libintl in libc,
which typically it will.  (But note that there are reports - 8796, 9996 -
that plural.c in fact isn't found on bootstrap when needed.  We need
someone with a known working system for bootstrapping GCC on a non-GNU
system to try removing Bison and building a release tarball with NLS
enabled, to work out whether these problems are real in supported
configurations.)

Perhaps this arrangement can be cleaned up - so that plural.c need not be
in CVS at all - when intl is moved to toplevel.
