intltool not building (expat problem)

[Thomas Klausner <wiz%NetBSD.org@localhost>]

Hi!

Just saw that intltool is not building (on 5.99.27/amd64, native X):

Stop.

I've reproduced the problem the configure script is having:

# perl -e "require XML::Parser"
Can't load 
'/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10.0/x86_64-netbsd-thread-multi/auto/XML/Parser/Expat/Expat.so'

The file exists in /usr/X11R7/lib/libexpat.so.2, for quite some time,
and I didn't have problems with it so far...

Any ideas?
