Thanks for reporting this. libtool-1.5.22 is already integrated in the
next prerelease at
  http://www.haible.de/bruno/gnu/gettext-0.15-pre5.tar.gz
(It's a prerelease. autopoint doesn't work in prereleases, but the rest
should.)

Can someone please explain the relation between
  - Cygwin's mingw mode
       CPPFLAGS="-mno-cygwin -Wall -I/usr/local/mingw/include" \
       CFLAGS="-mno-cygwin -O2 -g" CXXFLAGS="-mno-cygwin -O2 -g" \
       LDFLAGS="-mno-cygwin -L/usr/local/mingw/lib" \
       ./configure --host=i586-pc-mingw32 --prefix=/usr/local/mingw
  - Mingw from http://www.mingw.org/
  - MSYS from http://www.mingw.org/ (why is it two years old?)
  - http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/
  - http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-install/
?
