I found that in the tarball.  The on-line manual of gettext on www.gnu.org 
still points to 0.11.3.  I run red hat 7.3 and it still has 0.11.1.  I 
will try out 0.11.5 now.

The manual also mentions autopoint.  It is not 100% clear to me how it 
fits in from the description, but I will try it out on a test project.

Thanks again,
Thomas
