This would be highly appreciated.
Building gettext w/o bl2 is a pain, and one never knows which
crap the build process is going to pull in next time...

Maybe I've even broken Darwin bootstrap since I made gettext-lib
depending on libiconv which is bl2'd.

Otherwise, if pdksh doesn't work for some case, I'd suggest
setting up a special bash pkg and its dependencies just for
Darwin.
