>Description:
When built with the NLS (Native Language Support) option enabled in make config, libelf depends on devel/gettext.

The version of gettext was recently bumped, see 20100530 in UPDATING. 

After upgrading gettext and all dependencies (portmaster -BCHKtD --no-confirm -r gettext), all programs that depend on libelf seem to be broken; for example devel/gcc45 has ceased working: /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libintl.so.8" not found, required by "libelf.so.0".


>How-To-Repeat:
Compile devel/libelf with NLS enabled, against a version of devel/gettext from before the 201000530 bump. Then upgrade devel/gettext to the current version.
>Fix:
Probably bump the PORTVERSION in devel/libelf/Makefile, so that updating tools will see the need to recompile it. Although this should only effect NLS builds.
