These versions are still in active use, which makes it impractical to include a gettext in etch that doesn't support them. Simple question: Is this the kind of bug that may be forwarded upstream and fixed? Alternatively, if it helps, I could greate a gettext-0.14 package on which older packages could build-depend (the same way they already build-depend on an old automake).

These versions are still in active use, which makes it impractical to include a gettext in etch that doesn't support them. I'm filing this as a separate bug, because whereas the other problems are caused by deliberate behavior changes (indeed, improvements) in gettext, this is a regression that can be fixed by removing gettext.m4's and po.m4's dependency on newer automake macros.
