This would fall under, gettext.  You will need to rebuild everything
that depends on libintl.so.4

Thus, more then likely gmake, and alot of other things.  My suggestion
would be to rebuild gmake by hand, then install portupgrade

then portupgrade -r gettext

Couple hours later, all will be fine.

Fortunatly for me because I rebuilt using portupgrade so it kept
libintl.so.4 in a nice backup directory that's ldconfig'd at bootup.

So it wasn't too painful.

Food for thought,

Scott
