This is well known, and documented in the INSTALL file.
But perhaps the error message could be clearer.
The included gettext doesn't suffice to run ./autogen.sh
with intl support. In a source code distribution (rather than
a CVS checkout), ./autogen.sh has already been run, creating
./configure, so you can run ./configure instead, which doesn't
need msgfmt.

An old ./configure will often continue to work for a while.
