Now I've learned that there is a port of gettext, I have a few questions:

- What ports other than GNOME take advantage of gettext?  Usually
ports have gettext configure option commented out (in the patches).

- Current port uses 0.10 dated 1995-12-04 whereas the latest
version is 0.10.32 dated 1998-04-30 available from alpha site.
Any plans to upgrade?  The latest one compiles cleanly.

- Maybe I should ask it in -hackers:
I think Solaris has gettext in libc.  Is there any plan to have
BSD gettext in our libc or in some other library?

TIA,
