It is, but that's not the problem. However your reply did ring a bell and 
here's the issue:
If your build directory is a subdirectory of your source directory make check 
will fail because it will falsely believe the built files should be added to 
POTFILES.in. Building with ninja-build doesn't exhibit this issue so I assume 
it's a make quirk.

The immediate solution is simple: choose a build directory that's not a 
subdirectory of your source directory. How to nudge cmake to deal with this 
properly may be another matter.
