Added the comment, and moved it to be right next to
the offending GETTEXT 0.14.1 line:

Subject: [PATCH] build: ensure that MKINSTALLDIRS is AC_SUBST-defined

since we're using gettext-0.14.1, which uses that now-obsolete
automake symbol.  Otherwise, make distcheck would fails like this:

     make[2]: Entering directory `/t/libvirt-0.7.6/_build/po'
     /bin/sh @MKINSTALLDIRS@ /t/libvirt-0.7.6/_inst/share
     /bin/sh: @MKINSTALLDIRS@: No such file or directory
     make[2]: *** [install-data-yes] Error 127

* configure.ac (MKINSTALLDIRS): Define.

That was not right.
Test failed like this:

     make[2]: Entering directory `/co/libvirt/libvirt-0.7.6/_build/po'

Here's the incremental that should solve the problem:

ACK, after applying the original + the incremental I have a working build.
