>Description:
Building on SunOS 5.9 (configure says sparc-sun-solaris2.9) using
gcc version 3.3.4 (from package).

I do have /usr/pkg/bin/xgettext and I have a native xgettext (which is not
GNU).                                                                           
                   
The popt configure runs 
  xgettext --version 2>&1 | grep 'GNU gettext'

I tried to override the text by setting XGETTEXT and ac_cv_path_XGETTEXT,
but I see it checks before allowing to be overridden.

Maybe xgettext should be added to work/.tools/bin/ or maybe the configure
script should be fixed.

My workaround was to temporarily modify the configure to run ${XGETTEXT}
instead of xgettext.

I noticed this in December. But haven't tested recently.
>How-To-Repeat:
Attempt to build popt with a Solaris xgettext.
>Fix:
Use ${XGETTEXT} from gettext as a build dependency.
