To clarify, if I try to make gettext-runtime it ends with:

install  -m 0644 ABOUT-NLS '/usr/ports/devel/gettext-runtime/work/stage/usr/local/share/gettext'
====> Compressing man pages (compress-man)
ls: /usr/ports/devel/gettext-runtime/work/stage/usr/local/info/autosprintf.info*: No such file or directory

And the error is correct, the file does not exist.
