This is from AM_GNU_GETTEXT.  #709740 is implicated, although in my case
I get the macro definition indirectly via the copy in gnulib.  Dear
gnulib maintainer: could we please have a new snapshot in unstable,
since this was fixed upstream on 2012-12-23?  As well as #687986, we now
have this problem that will affect a number of upstream packages built
on Debian systems, and backporting fixes is only going to get
increasingly cumbersome.

Thanks,
