[gentoo-alt] [AIX] problems emerging with NLS flag enabled

[Marshall McMullen]

I tried enabling the NLS flag, and now a few packages that previously
emerged will not. gettext gives non-fatal warnings like:

checking whether NLS is requested... yes
checking for msgfmt... no
checking for gmsgfmt... /gsa/ausgsa-p5/15/gnu/usr/bin/gmsgfmt
Could not load program /gsa/ausgsa-p5/15/gnu/usr/bin/gmsgfmt:

And while emerging wget, it fails completely with:

Is this a known problem on AIX ? I'll just disable the flag for now
but wanted to report this just in case.

Thanks very much, almost through doing an "emerge -e system" on AIX 5.3, so
pretty excited about that :-).
