Lower the minimum gettext version requirement

We don't have to ask for the most recent version of gettext. A quick
search through gettext's sources showed that 0.15.1 is likely to
contain all the features we need.

In fact, all the features we need may be available since version 0.12
but I'm not sure about that.
