+*****************************************
+Test failure with NLS and gettext <= 0.17
+-----------------------------------------
+
+Due to a conflict between libintl.h and gnulib's new xprintf module,
+when you configure with NLS support, and with a gettext installation
+older than 0.17.1 (not yet released, at the time of this writing),
+then some tests fail, at least on NetBSD 1.6. To work around it in
+the mean time, you can configure with --disable-nls. For details,
+see <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/12015/>.
