_imp__gettext undefined when linking recode, configure


# checking news for gettext and recode first
# checking news for cygwin then

Dear Cygwin-Developers,

yersterday, I made/installed recode 3.5 and 3.6.  The only
problem was gettext.  With

./configure

the message 

/tmp/recode-3.6/src/main.c:464: undefined reference to `_imp__gettext'

appeared several times.  Adding '--with-included-gettext' when calling
configure does not change anything.  Excluding getext at all by

./configure --without-included-gettext

removes the messages and 'make; make test' is passed.  Configure reports

checking for gettext... (cached) no
checking for gettext in -lintl... (cached) yes
checking whether the included gettext is preferred... yes

if called with '--with-included-gettext' or without and

checking for gettext... (cached) no
checking for gettext in -lintl... (cached) yes
checking whether the included gettext is preferred... no

with '--without-included-gettext'. So, configure detects the installed gettext 
package correctly.

config.h contains

#define HAVE_DCGETTEXT 1
#define HAVE_GETTEXT 1
#define HAVE_DCGETTEXT 1
#define ENABLE_NLS 1

if configure is called with '--with-included-gettext' or without and 

#define HAVE_DCGETTEXT 1
/* #undef HAVE_GETTEXT */
#define HAVE_DCGETTEXT 1
/* #undef HAVE_GETTEXT */
#define HAVE_GETTEXT 1
#define ENABLE_NLS 1

with '--without-included-gettext'.

Using NLS not at all by '--disable-nls' is possible as well, of course.

So _imp__gettext is not found if the gettext of recode is used and using
gettext of recode is default.  Does this make sense?  If gettext is provide
in the installation of the OS it should have priority over a local gettext
by default, I thing?
