That would be yet another out-of-date software version required (at
present, the precise version of gettext used to regenerate gcc.pot isn't
critical, but if macros included in these scripts differ depending on what
version of gettext is installed, that is a problem). Copying these files
(from the same version of gettext as used for the intl directory) and
noting this in intl/README (so that people updating the intl directory
know to update these macros) would avoid that dependence.
