i'm not using nls/gettext. afaict, it's not even mentioned (in
configure, doc, INSTALL, etc) as an option. then, gettext shouldn't
be a requirement (even though it's installed on my system ...).
the point is, the check for the file is there, but the file is not
included. autogen.sh
*would* copy it if i spec'd the location of my gettext in
/usr/local/share (odd that the check wouldn't be for 'standard'
locations ... ), but, again, why's it asked for?

i'm not using the tarball -- rather
hg clone -r1.1.beta9 http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot
instructions, of course, are:
"If you got Dovecot from Mercurial, for instance with
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
hg clone http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot/
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
you will first need to run './autogen.sh' to generate the 'configure'
script and some other files."
