Yes.  It provides libintl so's in /usr/pkg/lib.  I have no other libintl
files around.

Am I incorrect in thinking that the culprit is too aggressive munging of
commands in the toolchain wrappers?  If I'm reading the .work.log
correctly, the ultimate link command doesn't include -L/usr/pkg/lib.
(Several other packages fail to build with similar failures to link to
extant libraries on the same machine, as well.)
