You are likely doing this on a glibc-2.1 machine. gettext 0.10.37
triggers an iconv bug there, when the last character in a msgstr is
non-ASCII. It is worked around in gettext 0.10.38 and newer.
I propose to require gettext 0.10.38 in configure.in, released two
months ago.

* configure.in: Require gettext 0.10.38 or newer.
