It wasn't this commit, INTLTOOL_FILES are the utility scripts which are
used during the build process.

Intltool does this unfortunately:
The target is...
mostlyclean:
rm -f *.pox $(GETTEXT_PACKAGE).pot *.old.po cat-id-tbl.tmp
rm -f .intltool-merge-cache
It is called from any of the clean targets, including "make clean"
I'm guessing this is because the .pot files are auto-generated.
po/ChangeLog is not deleted from the intltool makefiles.. it is done
from gschem's toplevel Makefile.am in maintainer-clean-local:

I can fix the ChangeLog deletion quite easily which is important
as ./autogen.sh doesn't re-add one.
Whether the .pot files should be checked in with intltool is another
question though, the answer to which I'm not sure.

It is needed to translate the .desktop and mime type registrations. The
normal gettext framework doesn't do those type of files.
I hope this isn't a problem.. it shouldn't add any extra dependencies
when building from the tarballs.
