Hello Philipp,
The attached patch fix this problem by patching aclocal.m4 and configure
to not cast a char * to an int.
It also fix po/Makefile.in.in so that 'debian/rules' clean work.
(Else you cannot build the package twice in a row).
Your package is actually not using automake, only autoconf.
This means two things:
1) The Makefile.in is hand-written and there is no Makefile.am or need
for one.
2) There is no risk of timestanp skew when patching configure.
Cheers,
