(pkglint should be fixed, USE_TOOLS+=msgfmt should be suggested instead).

Usually, whole gettext will not be required, just libintl and/or gettext tools.

Why 0.17 or later is required?
INSTALL files is probably wrong, because it is impossible to build
with native gcc-4.1.3 on NetBSD-5.1 :(

Is it means that some part must be build with native ABI,
but rest of them be ABI=32 (i386)?
