I have problems with running "make oldconfig" and "make menuconfig" on the
linux-2.6.12-gentoo-r6 with uclibc.

I get this:
mail linux # make oldconfig
  HOSTLD  scripts/kconfig/conf
scripts/kconfig/conf.o(.text+0xa3): In function `check_stdin':
: undefined reference to `libintl_gettext'
scripts/kconfig/conf.o(.text+0xb7): In function `check_stdin':
: undefined reference to `libintl_gettext'
scripts/kconfig/conf.o(.text+0xcb): In function `check_stdin':
: undefined reference to `libintl_gettext'
scripts/kconfig/conf.o(.text+0xc85): In function `check_conf':
: undefined reference to `libintl_gettext'
scripts/kconfig/conf.o(.text+0xd79): In function `main':
: undefined reference to `libintl_gettext'
scripts/kconfig/conf.o(.text+0xe18): more undefined references to 
`libintl_gettext' follow
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/conf] Error 1
make: *** [oldconfig] Error 2

However, if I emerge gettext, then I can workaround with this:

HOSTLOADLIBES_conf=-lintl make oldconfig
HOSTLOADLIBES_mconf=-lintl make menuconfig

Has anyone here experienced anything similar? Is this a bug in vanilla 
2.6.12, a bug in gentoo patches or is this related to mys system here. 
(its a fresh build from the x86 howto posted here earlier)
