PATCH 1/1 autotools: Enhance gettext handling to better work with SCM versions of code

If we pull SCM based code using gettext, Makefile.in.in in the po directory can be missing. We therefore need to add this if its not already present. We could use gettextize if it wasn't so broken (for example requiring user input on stdin and installing way more files that we ever care about such as the m4 files).

We also have a problem if a recipe sets a different AUX dir, for now fix this by allowing recipes to specify when this is being done using the AUTOTOOLS_AUXDIR variable. Ultimately we could likely figure this out automatically.
