AFAIK, they actually don't get built by default.  If you want to build
any of the VPN plugins, you actually have to cd
vpn-daemons/vpnc; ./autogen.sh ...  This was intentional, as not
everyone will care about all the plugins and not everyone wants to build
them.  If there's a tie between the main NM and the vpn daemons, we
should probably kill that tie.

Eventually, each vpn daemon should probably have its own CVS module.

In any case, I got around this by commenting out the bits
of /usr/bin/intltoolize that check for INTLTOOL_MAKEFILE at the bottom.
That seems to have no adverse affects.  I cannot find _anywhere_ on the
web that documents why that check exists...
