Could we just add:

INTLTOOL_EPLUGIN_RULE='%.eplug:      %.eplug.in      $(INTLTOOL_MERGE) $(wildcard $(top_srcdir)/po/*.po) ; LC_ALL=C $(INTLTOOL_MERGE) -k -u -c $(top_builddir)/po/.intltool-merge-cache $(top_srcdir)/po $< [$]@' 

to either acinclude.m4 or upstream it?  That way we don't get the ugly
extra extension and we can handle the the same as .server files.

There are a few other issues (not related to e-error), but this
definitely helps.
