If concerned about any changes, then splitting up the merge makes sense -
but splitting it up on the basis of *separate logical changes* rather than
using a particular libintl release. (Splitting up matters less for
changes that are completely routine cleanups, though such cleanups
shouldn't be mixed with substantive changes.)
