Details:

I tried building the latest Freeciv svn revision
to test it with Freeciv-web, but it fails checking for gettext. Freeciv-web
doesn't use gettext, so gettext isn't installed or required, and the 
--disable-nls parameter to configure is used.

This is the output from configure:

checking for GNU xgettext version >= 0.14... no
configure: WARNING: You may have problems with creating pox files. Please
update
 your gettext package.
checking for GNU msgfmt version >= 0.14... no
configure: error: You are unable to create *.gmo files.
This is development version which doesn't include them. Please update your
gettext package. Or use --disable-nls instead.

configure failed

This is how the Freecivs server was built:

./autogen.sh --enable-fcweb --disable-nls --disable-debug --disable-fcmp
--without-freeciv-manual --disable-ruledit --enable-ai-static=classic,threaded
&& make

This is a temporary workaround patch I created:
