Some systems have gettext.sh (GNU gettext) installed, but it is either broken or misconfigured in such a way so its output is not usable. For instance, on this particular system, a Cygwin installations gettext produces no output whatsoever. In case the users of these systems are unable or not interested in fixing them, setting the new Makefile switch should help: USE_FALLTHROUGH_GETTEXT_SCHEME=yes This will replace the translation routines with fallthrough versions, which currently used only for regression testing.

Not that they get the point... I believe this patch does just that. It is certainly enough for my purposes. The copy-paste error noticed by Jonathan is also fixed, thanks! I didn't add the tracking of the switch in GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS: didn't found how to do it quickly enough in this time of evening, and gave up, thinking that no one sane would need to set the option anyway. So at the moment a "make clean" needed when changing it.
