The SVN_INTL_LIBS may have been specific to the windows build.

But linking to libintl certainly isn't windows-specfific.
And -lintl is being linked on Unix through LIBS, even though other
libraries like libmagic are handled by flags like SVN_MAGIC_LIBS.
In fact, no other library relies LIBS.

I'd rather clean up these inconsistencies than pile up more hacks on top.
