It's a tricky one.. On solaris I have so far run configure, edited
config.cache to tell it that gettext was not found in libc, but to link
with libintl instead... It's a gross hack, I know.. but what can we do?
On linux systems, we want to use gettext() if found in libc, and the
same on solaris if GNU gettext is not installed (if it is installed,
we'll get the gnu format for solaris gettext to parse.. bad..)
