I don't think this is exactly what Hannes reported; IIRC he reported
that setting NO_GETTEXT wasn't sufficient to get it to build. Just
unsetting NEEDS_LIBINTL for a platform that doesn't have gettext is
curing the symptoms rather than the decease, shouldn't the build
system and/or the code be fixed so setting NO_GETTEXT is sufficient
instead?

As a side-note, I think it might be time to merge the gettext-branch
into msysGit soon. If no one complains, I'll get it done one of the
next days.
