Ah, so you did. You might as well make autogen.sh copy this if it
can. You also need to copy the AM_ICONF and AM_LANGINFO into m4, 
I think?

MacOS X provides iconv, but not gettextize. I'm not sure how
to make that work either.

I got it to build under vanilla (intel) MacOS by reducing the required 
automake version to 1.6 in Makefile.am and replacing AM_ICONV and 
AM_LANGINFO_CODESET with:

AC_DEFINE([HAVE_ICONV], [], [Whether we have libiconv available])
LIBICONV="-liconv"
AC_SUBST(LIBICONV)

But the link fails with:

ld: ia32/.libs/libFLAC-asm.a(bitreader_asm.o) has external relocation 
entries in non-writable section (__TEXT__,__text) for symbols:
FLAC__crc16_table
bitreader_read_from_client_

It builds when configured with --disable-asm-optimizations. I'm running 
the tests now.
