I just downloaded the patch egcs-980321 -> egcs-980328 and
it seems there is a problem with xgettext when not using
the GNU version: Here is a recall of the configuration:
-> ../egcs-980328/configure --prefix=/thesee00/gnu
Configuring for a sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1 host.
Created "Makefile" in /thesee00/gnu/sources/obj using "mh-frag"
Links are now set up to build a native compiler for sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1
-> make bootstrap
result:
.../...
make[3]: Entering directory `/thesee00/gnu/sources/obj/texinfo/po'
PATH=../src:$PATH : --default-domain=texinfo
--directory=../../../egcs-980328/texinfo \
--add-comments --keyword=_ --keyword=N_ \
--files-from=../../../egcs-980328/texinfo/po/POTFILES.in
rm -f ../../../egcs-980328/texinfo/po/texinfo.pot
mv texinfo.po ../../../egcs-980328/texinfo/po/texinfo.pot
mv: cannot access texinfo.po
make[3]: *** [../../../egcs-980328/texinfo/po/texinfo.pot] Error 2
make[3]: Leaving directory `/thesee00/gnu/sources/obj/texinfo/po'
The XGETTEXT variable is not defined in the texinfo/po Makefile.
I've seen somewhere "found xgettext programs is not GNU xgettext; ignore it"
NOTE:
egcs-980321 was succesfully built with the same commands.

This is _not_ a solution. It does _not_ work.
It is a problem even when building the complete egcs-980328.tar.gz
snapshot. I see a similar problem (yes, I'm using gnumake)
when building for host==target==alphaev56-dec-osf4.0b
I get
...
gnumake[3]: Leaving directory `/proj/gorton/egcs-980328/texinfo/makeinfo'
Making all in po

PATH=../src:$PATH : --default-domain=texinfo --directory=.. \
--add-comments --keyword=_ --keyword=N_ \
--files-from=./POTFILES.in
rm -f ./texinfo.pot
mv texinfo.po ./texinfo.pot
mv: rename texinfo.po to ./texinfo.pot: No such file or directory
gnumake[3]: *** [texinfo.pot] Error 1
gnumake[3]: Leaving directory `/proj/gorton/egcs-980328/texinfo/po'

gnumake[1]: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2
gnumake[1]: Leaving directory `/proj/gorton/egcs-980328/texinfo'
gnumake: *** [all-texinfo] Error 2
Then, when I apply the bison++ "fix", I get:
touch `find texinfo -name \*.pot -print`
It fails, because there are no .pot files
After re-invoking gnumake:
I get the exact same error as listed above.

This is _not_ a solution. It does _not_ work.
Yes, I only discovered this after the fact when I tried it myself.
The instructions work only if you have GNU xgettext installed.
I see three possible solutions to this problem:
1) Add the requirement that people using CVS must install GNU xgettext, and
fix snapshots and diffs so that they include the generated .pot files.
2) Add the .pot files to the CVS archive.
3) Stop building the po subdirectory.
Personally, I like the last choice. Here is the patch I have been using, but
as yet I haven't tried to force this on everyone else.

I believe this shouldn't become a requirement.
Of course there have been some troubles with generate files in CVS
lately but we shouldn't make it too difficult for people to make use
of CVS snapshots by requiring too many further packages...

Either one of 2) and 3) would be fine for me, though 3) will probably
cause less troubles in the long term.

Try adding --disable-nls to the configure command. It works for me.
