No, USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN isn't even intended to be set by hand at all.  It is
supposed to be set by a directive at the top-level build, where a
`bootstrap' toolchain will be built (using the gnu/dist/toolchain "GNU
configure" mechanism) and used to build the rest of the tree.

My guess is that you upgraded NetBSD after installing such gettext-using
packages; it shouldn't be needed by most (the USE_LIBINTL marked pkgsrc)
after upgrading to a version with libintl in /usr/lib.  (/usr/lib/libintl
appeared in -current after 1.5.)
