+/* This file redirects the gettext functions (without prefix or suffix) to
+ those defined in the included GNU gettext library (with "__" suffix).
+ It is compiled into libintl when the included GNU gettext library is
+ configured --with-included-gettext.
+
+ This redirection works also in the case that the system C library or
+ the system libintl library contain gettext/textdomain/... functions.
+ If it didn't, we would need to add preprocessor level redirections to
+ libgnuintl.h of the following form:
+
+# define gettext gettext__
+# define dgettext dgettext__
+# define dcgettext dcgettext__
+# define ngettext ngettext__
+# define dngettext dngettext__
+# define dcngettext dcngettext__
+# define textdomain textdomain__
+# define bindtextdomain bindtextdomain__
+# define bind_textdomain_codeset bind_textdomain_codeset__
+
+ How does this redirection work? There are two cases.
+ A. When libintl.a is linked into an executable, it works because
+ functions defined in the executable always override functions in
+ the shared libraries.
+ B. When libintl.so is used, it works because
+ 1. those systems defining gettext/textdomain/... in the C library
+ (namely, Solaris 2.4 and newer, and GNU libc 2.0 and newer) are
+ ELF systems and define these symbols as weak, thus explicitly
+ letting other shared libraries override it.
+ 2. those systems defining gettext/textdomain/... in a standalone
+ libintl.so library (namely, Solaris 2.3 and newer) have this
+ shared library in /usr/lib, and the linker will search /usr/lib
+ *after* the directory where the GNU gettext library is installed.
+
+ A third case, namely when libintl.a is linked into a shared library
+ whose name is not libintl.so, is not supported. In this case, on
+ Solaris, when -lintl precedes the linker option for the shared library
+ containing GNU gettext, the system's gettext would indeed override
+ the GNU gettext. Anyone doing this kind of stuff must be clever enough
+ to 1. compile libintl.a with -fPIC, 2. remove -lintl from his linker
+ command line. */
