 15.4 The Maintainer's View
 ==========================
 
 For the maintainer, the general procedure differs from the C language
 case in two ways.
 
    * For those languages that don't use GNU gettext, the `intl/'
      directory is not needed and can be omitted.  This means that the
      maintainer calls the `gettextize' program without the `--intl'
      option, and that he invokes the `AM_GNU_GETTEXT' autoconf macro via
      `AM_GNU_GETTEXT([external])'.
 
    * If only a single programming language is used, the
      `XGETTEXT_OPTIONS' variable in `po/Makevars' ( po/Makevars)
      should be adjusted to match the `xgettext' options for that
      particular programming language.  If the package uses more than
      one programming language with `gettext' support, it becomes
      necessary to change the POT file construction rule in
      `po/Makefile.in.in'.  It is recommended to make one `xgettext'
      invocation per programming language, each with the options
      appropriate for that language, and to combine the resulting files
      using `msgcat'.
