Good catch, Ross. It looks like when I updated fink, I lost my  
gettext 0.14.4, and it defaulted back to 0.10.4! I'm reinstalling it  
now. (I did wonder where my translation of it had gone to...)

This should fix the problem.

container should definitely be running something later. :(

All the same, we need to be getting the same results on msgfmt, or  
the checks are going to conflict and cause more problems.

Seconded. :)
