No no no. gettextize is not suitable for running from within autogen.sh;
this is explained in the GNU gettext manual. You need autopoint instead.

Actually, autoreconf will do this if you add a AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION
declaration in configure.in. But before doing that, run gettextize
once and _just_once_; then you put the AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION line into
configure.in, with a version number that matches the one of gettextize
that you ran.

autogen.sh is preferrable here because the creation of a version.texi is a
once-only thing. It's not needed in further runs. And not everyone using
a CVS snapshot is a maintainer.
