Evince requires recent gettext

[Steve Magoun <steve pepper com>]

I discovered that evince requires a somewhat recent version of gettext. 
I had gettext 0.10.35 installed on my system; the evince build failed:

file=`echo bg | sed 's,.*/,,'`.gmo \
  && rm -f $file && /usr/bin/msgfmt -o $file bg.po
 ./bg.po:326: keyword "msgid_plural" unknown
 ./bg.po:325: missing `msgstr' section
 ./bg.po:326: parse error
[...]

msgid_plural was added in gettext 0.10.36; upgrading to the latest 
(gettext 0.14.1) fixed the problem. Can the gettext version be checked 
by configure?
