Here as well, thanks for this patch. Could you send it with your
Signed-off-by-line in the commit log, and with git send-email so that
it doesn't get line wrapped by your e-mail client ?

I think we'd prefer to use the existing
GETTEXT_TINY_EXTRA_GETTEXT_FILES logic, which is precisely there to
borrow some files from gettext-gnu when building/installing
gettext-tiny. Could you look into this ?

Thanks!
