A recent change introduced three problems:
(1) In some configurations, intl.h is not found.
(2) Some configurations complain that make can't find -liconv, since
it gets erroneously considered a dependency.
(3) There are dozens of warnings about missing declarations and format
arg mismatches.
Is anybody working on this or is it time to consider reverting those changes?

The latter, as far as I am concerned.

I believe Zack was working on it.

I've not tried it to see if that fixed the problem, and I don't know if
the patch has been committed yet.
R.

You mean libintl.h, right? I just checked in a patch which should
resolve this.

I need more information in order to understand where this is coming
from. It is supposed to notice the absence of libiconv and not use
it.

This is because upstream gettext is coded to a weaker set of warning
switches than GCC uses. I'll be looking at this after the critical
problems are resolved.

Look in /usr/shlib. 4.0D has /usr/shlib/libiconv.so.

What target is this
alphaev56-dec-osf4.0c
and does it have a system-provided libiconv?
I can't find it, but I might not be looking in the right places.

Ah, I understand. What target is this and does it have a
system-provided libiconv?

Yes. Good.

I need more information in order to understand where this is coming
from. It is supposed to notice the absence of libiconv and not use it.
We have:
INTLLIBS = $(top_builddir)/intl/libintl.a -liconv
But then LIBDEPS have $(INTLLIBS), so make tries to find a rule to make
"-liconv".

Wrt (1) at least CVS Wed Oct 17 23:03:18 UTC 2001 is working for me
on i686-unknown-sysv5UnixWare7.1.0 which had been failing for me before.
I needed to follow Zack's instructions, running autoconf and autoheader
again
and also found I needed to remove config.cache. make distclean didn't cut
it.
Maybe maintainerclean would have.
My setup is screwy though. Hope this helps
