------- Additional Comments From tim dot vanholder at anubex dot com 2005-04-20 08:14 ------- This is still present. I've now patched acinclude.m4 to detect the library properly (will add as attachment); it's not ideal but it seems to work.
Also, like I feared, it introduces a dependency on libintl.so when building C++ programs - and g++ does not know to add libintl when linking. As a result, failures are reported by autoconf tests that check whether the compiler can produce executables. Because of the latter, either gcc needs to duplicate some of the libstdc++ configury so that it can add -lintl (and -liconv where applicable) to its g++ link (and this seems a less-than-optimal thing to do), or libstdc++ needs to improve its i18n checks (ideally using the regular gettext macros, and perhaps rejecting any solution that requires extra libraries). -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11074
