    Hmm.  Maybe you built it with stale installer packages.  Try fetching
    a fresh set of installer packages and rebuilding.
    rm -rf /usr/release/packages
    make installer_fetch
So this looks like my goof. Cleaning out the packages directory fixed
the problem. That directory had 2 different packages for gettext
# ls -l gettext-lib-0.1*
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  46755 Dec 21 21:45 gettext-lib-0.11.5nb6.tgz
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  51262 Apr 14 12:17 gettext-lib-0.14.5.tgz
    If that turns out to be the trouble, we need to fix the Makefile to
    detect the issue (maybe by storing a 'release' number in
    /usr/release/packages/ and cleaning them out if it doesn't match).
I'll leave the remedy up to you. Thanks for the help!
