[gnome-db] AC_PROG_INTLTOOL

["Fernando Martins" <fmartins hetnet nl>]

I'm giving a try to compile ligbda with MingW/MSYS. I'm building it without
autogen.sh, by running manually aclocal and autoconf.

When I run autoconf it gives the error (in verbose mode):

=============
autom4te: creating configure
autom4te: formatting traces for `C:/WINDOWS/TEMP/am4t610029/patterns':
m4_pattern_allow, m4_pattern_forbid
autom4te: forbidden tokens: ^_?A[CHUM]_|_AC_|^LIBOBJS$|^_?m4_|^dnl$|^_?AS_
autom4te: forbidden token : ^LIBOBJS$ => do not use LIBOBJS directly, use
AC_LIBOBJ (see section `AC_LIBOBJ vs LIBOBJS'
autom4te: allowed   tokens: ^AM_[A-Z]+FLAGS$|^AS_FLAGS$
configure.in:32: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_INTLTOOL
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
=============

I suppose aclocal should have complained previously about this missing macro
but it didn't (and I don't know why).

Where should this macro come from (which package, directory)?

If someone sends me this macro, can I simply add it manually to aclocal.m4?

Also, the next macro in configure.in looks suspicious (as I'm in windows):

GNOME_PLATFORM_GNOME_2(yes, force)

Any idea what it does?
