Bug#425401: intltoolize cannot handle AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([build-aux])

[deckrider]

Package: intltool
Version: 0.35.5-4
Severity: normal

When I have AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([build-aux]) in my configure.ac,
intltoolize gives the following error:

cp: cannot create regular file `po/Makefile.in.in': No such file or directory
intltoolize: cannot copy '/usr/share/intltool/Makefile.in.in' to
'po/Makefile.in.in'

However, when I change it to AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([.]), everything works.

I think this is because intltoolize does a cd to the build-aux directory
and then tries to copy to po/Makefile.in.in from there.
