Because indent doesn't generate header files (I think), all
includes should be for the $(srcdir).  As you see, it includes
-I../intl (build dir) -I../../indent-2.2.7/intl (source dir).

So actually, the #include should be <libgettext.h> instead
of <intl/libgettext.h>.  This will be fixed in the next release.

The reason that it coincidently works inside indent-2.2.7
itself is because for some reason automake always includes -I.

Replying because this mistake was mine,
