Have a look if you've got other version of libintl in /usr/local/lib.
Mine is at '.8':

$ ls -l /usr/local/lib/libintl.so.*
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  45025 [...] /usr/local/lib/libintl.so.8
$ pkg_which /usr/local/lib/libintl.so.8
gettext-0.16.1

Anything under /usr/local is not a part of an OS, "just" some software
needs libintl.so.6 and refuses to start.

First check if you've got gettext installed and what version. Most
probably you'd want to check 20070318 entry in /usr/ports/UPDATING.

HTH,
