On Windows it's possible to build VLC in either msys2 or WSL. But the tools are
shared and incompatible. Only one at a time is currently possible. This will
allow switching back and forth without rebuilding tools all the time
(especially since they are detected as built).

Using the foreign flavour you can forego the ABOUT-NLS file as well as
keep the custom INSTALL file.

It is still possible to compile from tarball without pkg-config, though
the result will probably be quite useless.

...rather than in all modules/* directories

(Note __BUILTIN__ was not used anymore as we have !__PLUGIN__)

And make sure we really use the host to check what contrib to use in the configure.

You don't have to re-run bootstrap from contrib after make from contrib when building for x86_64-darwin.

(or any directory in fact)

In case autopoint hasn't replaced our Makefile.in.in

Now that we actually have _ALL_ the gettext m4 macros in m4/, autopoint
is useless. That was not the case last time this hack was attempted.

It was a bit clumsy to have to modify it through bootstrap.
