Attached an updated patch, that avoids unneeded churn in PO files in git
(wrapping and subsequent unwrapping of long lines).  Works for me.

Thank you, Sami.  That worked.

Although, now, during ./autogen.sh, I get the following warning:

configure.ac:149: warning: The 'AM_PROG_MKDIR_P' macro is deprecated, and its use is discouraged.
configure.ac:149: You should use the Autoconf-provided 'AC_PROG_MKDIR_P' macro instead,
configure.ac:149: and use '$(MKDIR_P)' instead of '$(mkdir_p)'in your Makefile.am fi

Something from gettext, apparently, because line 149 is:

AM_GNU_GETTEXT([external])
