You're right, it's glib, of course.

There is also another solution which works: Updating intltool and
removing AM_GLIB_GNU_GETTEXT:

        diff --git a/configure.ac b/configure.ac
        index 9debce2..9222c6f 100644
        --- a/configure.ac
        +++ b/configure.ac
        @@ -413,11 +413,10 @@ if test "x$have_kqueue" = "xyes" ; then
             AC_DEFINE([HAVE_KQUEUE], 1, [Enable BSD kqueue() usage])
         fi
        
        -IT_PROG_INTLTOOL([0.35.0])
        +IT_PROG_INTLTOOL([0.50.2])
         GETTEXT_PACKAGE=avahi
         AC_SUBST([GETTEXT_PACKAGE])
        
        AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([GETTEXT_PACKAGE],["$GETTEXT_PACKAGE"],[Gettext package])
        -AM_GLIB_GNU_GETTEXT
        
         avahilocaledir='${prefix}/${DATADIRNAME}/locale'
         AC_SUBST(avahilocaledir)
        --

Since I've already created a patch I can submit it. I was just wondering
about the patch name policy in avahi and unsure how to name?
