I am trying that, but then I get same error I saw before about needing GNU
gettext.

I do have /usr/pkg/bin/xgettext and I have a native xgettext (which is not
GNU).

The popt configure runs
  xgettext --version 2>&1 | grep 'GNU gettext'

I tried to override the text by setting XGETTEXT and ac_cv_path_XGETTEXT,
but I see it checks before allowing to be overridden.

Maybe xgettext should be added to work/.tools/bin/ or maybe the configure
script should be fixed.

My workaround was to temporarily modify the configure to run ${XGETTEXT}
instead of xgettext.

(No maintainer for pkgsrc/devel/popt).

Now that I have popt, back to building abiword ...
