[bug-gettext] gettext 0.18.1.1 build failure on Solaris 10

[Stefano Lattarini]

Here is the failure I'm experiencing:

 $ cd gettext-0.18.1.1
 $ ./configure
 checking whether build environment is sane... yes
 ...
 config.status: executing po-directories commands
 $ make
 ...
 In end of data:

The following change fixes the problem for me:

Let me know if you need more information.
