The result is an intltool 0.50.0 release, which has a few reasonably sized changes.

The biggest changes are:

• #580526: Finally, support for gsettings gschema.xml files is merged in, which should enable maintainers to get a slightly simpler build setup (i.e. no need to use NOMERGE rule anymore, and you can have intltool directly extract translations from .gschema.xml files).
• #790574: Let xgettext extract Scheme strings out, and add support for intltool-update -m to find files with marked strings.
• #806006: Improve handling of quotes in intltool-update -m so you get less (no?) warnings about mismatched quotes, and Python processing doesn't get messed up with docstrings and similar.
• #520986: one for the translators—messages are extracted in the order they appear in original files now, thus allowing translators to infer more of the context from the ordering.

There are a few other bug fixes, but listed above are those with the highest risk factor. Please test and file bugs!
