- hack gcc 2.95/vax doesn't like abort being used as function pointer

- descr
- The latest gettext assumes a C99 environment or at least
- configure checks to work around this. As we don't use configure
- provide a stdbool.h for vax builds locally in directories from
- the template provided by the gettext code.
