This is the patch I'm currently testing.  I need someone with a very old 
toolchain (4.1 or earlier) to also give this a try (the original problem 
does not occur in g++ more recent than 4.1).


Thanks.  Diego.

It's hard to convince myself that this patch is portable.  I don't
think we can assume that every system that provides <libintl.h> uses
_LIBINTL_H as the preprocessor guard.

The issue is that we must not #include <libintl.h> after #defining
those macros.  So the fix is to #include <libintl.h> in all cases
before #defining those macros.  Your proposal of unconditionally doing
#include <libintl.h> is not a good idea, because <libintl.h> is not
available on every system.  But we are compiling host files here, so
we can just use autoconf.  I recommend that you add libintl.h to the
AC_CHECK_HEADERS list in gcc/configure.ac, and then change intl.h to
do

#ifdef HAVE_LIBINTL_H
#include <libintl.h>
#endif

before the #ifdef ENABLE_NLS test.

Yes.  Still I think including system headers from random gcc headers
is bogus (the gmp.h include from double-int.h), we have system.h
exactly to be able to setup things that the includes will work
before poisoning anything or for systems that require special care.

The configure check including system.h should define GENERATOR_FILE
eventually.  Or we need to split system.h.

Richard.
