Hi Hrvoje,

we can relax the gettext version, but the bootstrap script is used only
when the code is compiled from the source repository and gettext is
needed to generate files used by gettext later, and that are distributed
in source releases.  It is a dependency only in the bootstrap phase.  If
the configure script doesn't find gettext on the system then the gnulib
module is used.

Cheers,
Giuseppe
