I think you have missed a point somehwere and need to install the older version. You will have the new version and an old version. You can cd /usr/ports/devel/gettext-old and make and install the port. You problem will probably disappear. If they do not, you have ports that need to be updated. A cvsup of ports-all and then recreating the INDEX files will get you to where you need to be to start updating. Any of the ports that still need the ...10.x version will use the gettext-old version once you update them.
