msgfmt conflict between devel/gettext and x11-toolkits/xview

[Jean-Baptiste Quenot]

Hello,

A   lot   of  ports   failed   to   compile  after   I   installed
x11-toolkits/xview.  The latter installs a program called "msgfmt"
in X11BASE, whereas gettext installs  a program with the same name
in LOCALBASE.

Most ports don't set MSGFMT in CONFIGURE_ENV, so the port compiles
with  the first  "msgfmt" found  in PATH.   This is  not reliable.
There are also  ports that don't allow to specify  the path of the
"msgfmt" program at configure stage.

See attached patches for examples.  First patch is for
audio/audacity, second for mail/mutt-ng and third for
audio/sound-juicer.

Note that the audacity patch is not complete, it is just an
indication of the way to go.
