After

% portmaster -w -r gettext

the upgrade of devel/glib20 failed during configuration with the
following error:

configure: error:
*** You must have either have gettext support in your C library, or use the
*** GNU gettext library. (http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/gettext.html

gettext-0.18 was installed and libgettextpo.so.4 and libintl.so.8 are
in /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg/

Neither gnomeanalyzer nor "make clean && make deinstall && make
install clean" helped.

The config log can be found here: http://gly.ath.cx/misc/glib20_config.log

I would guess the relevant part of the log is:

configure:9142: checking for msgfmt
configure:9172: result: no
configure:9447: error:
*** You must have either have gettext support in your C library, or use the
*** GNU gettext library. (http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/gettext.html

Cheers,
