After updating gettext to 0.24.1 our daily build of git head is now

See the Autoconf documentation.
autoreconf: error: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1
Indeed running 'aclocal' generates the same error:

gettext does include the file :
/usr/share/gettext/m4/iconv.m4
Any help appreciated.
I scanned the gettex mail lists but didn't spot anything that seemed
relevant.
Thanks for any guidance.
The fix is to update configure.ac with this which is now required in gettext
0.24 and later:
diff --git a/configure.ac b/configure.ac
