It appears that the build infrastructure was not up-to-date. (I.e. you
didn't know that you needed to execute "sh autogen.sh" before...)

I've prepared a tarball for you, with up-to-date Makefiles and configure
scripts, at http://www.haible.de/bruno/gnu/gettext-0.15-pre0.tar.gz .
Can you try that, please?
