            Bug ID: 234833
           Summary: USES=autoreconf fails if a port uses gettext but user
                    disables NLS port option

As of ports SVN revision 489889:

On a port that sets USES+=autoreconf (such as mail/fetchmail as of 6.3.26_9),
if the user disables the NLS port option (through poudriere options -c -n
mail/fetchmail, for instance), the configure phase fails when running
autoreconf.

The latter is looking for autopoint, which then fails:
Can't exec "autopoint": No such file or directory at
/usr/local/share/autoconf-2.69/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm line 345.

I oversee too little of the Mk/Uses/autoreconf.mk rig and its integration with
gettext, but putting AUTOPOINT=${TRUE} into autoreconf's environment appears to
help, as of autoconf 2.69. AUTOPOINT=: will _not_ work, BTDT.

(fetchmail uses a workaround, see
