I would not have guessed that gettext was incompatible with
Autoconf versions later than 2.65.
Have you considered making gettext warn when its "configure" is
run with a too-new Autoconf? Perhaps something like this:
m4_version_prereq(
[2.66],
[m4_warn([Only Autoconf 2.60..2.65 is supported.])],
[:])
