Oh, intltool-update! The part of intltool that I keep working and test is
the stuff that's actually used at build time, intltool-extract and
intltool-merge.

The intltool-update script, which is a convenience for starting to use
intltool on a package for the first time, has no tests in the intltool tests
directory, and is something I've never used myself at all. I do by hand the
things that intltool-update does for you.

But I'd be happy to take a patch to fix intltool-update!

I might eventually fix it myself, although I'd prefer to have some test
cases rather than changing the program without any tests.

You said "intltool-* use PACKAGE instead GETTEXT_PACKAGE". I'm pretty sure
that's only intltool-update, not the other scripts. If I'm wrong, please let
me know.
