Shawn O. PearceIf msgfmt is not in our PATH, or it is but it does not seem to honor the --tcl command line option then we need to fallback to po2msg. This is rather common on Mac OS X systems, but also can show up on a Linux OS if GNU gettext is not installed on the system.
This particular block of code was copied from git-gui's Makefile, where we have already (reasonably) vetted this fallback system.
