  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Could it be that configure picked up a shell script called `msgfmt'
instead of the real `msgfmt' programm that comes from gettext package
(/usr/bin/msgfmt on my computer)? What happens when you run `msgfmt
--help' from your command prompt? What kind of Linux system is that?
