You have a problem here.  GNU gettext 0.10.36 introduced a few new
features, which are not 100% compatible with older versions.  You
probably can't install two versions without some manual tweaking.
Especially the backslash handing differs, it uses the C99 syntax.  If
you upgrade to 0.10.40 you would need to check for every application if
all messages are handled properly.  An alternative is to use the
OLD_PO_FILE_OUTPUT and OLD_PO_FILE_INPUT environment variables, like Vim
does.

A dummy bind_textdomain_codeset() is annoying, since autoconf finds it
but doesn't know it doesn't work.  In my opinion it's better to have no
function than a function that doesn't work.
