It is.  So I've been trying different versions of gettext,
and version 0.20 is the first that doesn't overwrite the
'extern-inline.m4' file any more.

When making the following change in configure.ac in the
unpacked nano-8.0 source, then running `autoreconf -ifs`
runs to completion without problems.

  -AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION([0.18.3])
  +AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION([0.20])

Does that work for you too on your machines?


Gettext-0.20 is five years old, so most machines should
have upgraded by now to a distro that has that version
or newer.  So it should be fine to bump the requirement.
