You'll be delighted to learn that the test is already in place :) It
is from AM_PO_SUBDIRS in m4/po.m4.

What we may want to remove, though, is the following old hack in
configure.ac:

# a hack for those who try to change LyX, but do not have gettext installed
case  "${XGETTEXT}" in
 *:) XGETTEXT='cp ${srcdir}/lyx.pot ./${PACKAGE}.po ; :'
esac

I am not sure we should really try to outsmart gettext-code (and yes,
I am to blame for this code :)
