 check at latest automake/autoconf/gettext/help2man version:

          https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gettext/2023-07/msg00008.html)
-  . also upgrade gettext under tp/Texinfo/XS (need to write instructions how
-    to do this properly)

+  . also upgrade gettext under tp/Texinfo/XS using autopoint and/or gettextize
   . After upgrading automake/autoconf/gettext, run ./autogen.sh
     and/or "autoreconf --verbose --force --install" to update ancilliary
     files in build-aux and elsewhere.  Check changes before committing.
