devel/bison already has USETOOLS+=msgfmt, which means it is supposed  
to install .mo files.  The only reason that they are not installed on  
NetBSD is that configure searches for a function unavailable in  
libintl.  Since that function (nl_expand_alias) is not used by bison  
anyway, we can simply bypass the test.

Chris, is it okay to apply the attached patch to re-enable translated  
messages?
