The real problem is that whatever created the file mentioned in
the bug report, did not include the Unicode BOM and libid3tag
defaulted to big endian. This commit uses some code from ReactOS
that TRIES to autodetect the endianness.
This was done on a Ubuntu 14.04 system with wxWidgets 3.1.1 installed.
The resulting buildfiles successfully build Audacity on Ubuntu 14.04 (with 3.1.1) and on Travis (with 3.0.0).
Ensures that all files that Git considers to be text will have
normalized (LF) line endings in the repository. When core.eol is set to
native (which is the default), Git will convert the line endings of
normalized files in your working directory back to your platform's
native line ending.

This way, building the minsrc tarball doesn't require multiple versions
of Automake to be installed. (Most things were at the 1.11 version, but
some were at the 1.14 version.)
Building minsrc should now work just fine.
In r13510 I had neglected to build with all local libraries and some of
them needed attention.
So, I also took the opportunity to work out the locale directory and
how to keep it unmolested as well. As a result, all locales are rebuilt
as expected, but into the "build" directory.
As a bonus you may now test Audacity from the "build" directory and have
Nyquist plugins and message catalogs available (so you can test other
languages again without havint to install).
So, again:
mkdir buildme
cd buildme
../configure
make
./audacity
