I found that -lintl gets added to $LIBS if I enable gettext support.
And that, indeed, libintl is a separate library.
However, I still don't understand what $(SVN_INTL_LIBS) is for.
Is SVN_INTL_LIBS used on any platform? If not, I'd like to remove it because
it interferes with generation of pkg-config files. Otherwise, I'll need to
know in which circumstances it is being used.
