Thanks, Josh. I've taken the route to patch geany's configure script and that seems \
to have fixed the issue for me.
I now understand that there is an intltool ticket on this issue [1]. I had seen it \
previously but didn't grok that it was the problem I'd run into. I've added to the \
ticket so hopefully others can save a little time.

Thanks again.
