Makefile.in.in fails when gettext not installed (patch)

In the .po.gmo rule, we read:

        cd $(srcdir) && rm -f $${lang}.gmo && $(GMSGFMT) -c --statistics -o 
t-$${lang}.gmo $${lang}.po && mv t-$${lang}.gmo $${lang}.gmo

When gettext is not installed, GMSGFMT is ":", and always succeeds,
although it does not create t-$${lang}.gmo, which makes the command
fail, and with it the full package build.

The following allows things to work as expected:

... && if test -e t-$${lang}.gmo; then mv t-$${lang}.gmo $${lang}.gmo; fi
