The issues with libintl_sprintf etc should be fixed by r38915.

libintl.h defines printf() etc as macros which expand to the
corresponding libintl_printf() etc functions. This is done so that you
can use positional specifiers (e.g. "%2$s"), which aren't supported by
MSVCRT's *printf functions.

This feature is useful in localised messages, as the argument order is
fixed in the code, but the order in which the arguments appear in the
message may need to vary according to language.

However, it means that anything including <libintl.h> (typically via
<grass/glocale.h>) acquires a direct dependency upon libintl.
