gettext - libintl.so.6 not found

[Randy Bush]

so i fell into the trap where gettext-0.13.1 stomped on
gettext-0.12.1.  so i pkg_deleted gettext-0.13.1 and tried to

    portupgrade -vfr devel/gettext-old

but i get problems in places like x11-toolkits/gtk20

/usr/X11R6/lib/gtk-2.0/2.2.0/immodules/im-gucharmap.so does not export GTK+ IM module API: Shared object "libintl.so.6" not found
*** Error code 1

and gettext-0.12.1 did libintl.so.5

clues and hacks appreciated
