Still no love, exact same problem (/usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols:  
_libintl_ngettext).

I wasn't aware of your builds at hmug.org and for some odd reason I  
can't get there (I get a "Web Filter" error I've never seen before;  
"Failure receiving data from the host, url = http://www.hmug.org/";).  
I didn't want to have to install something like MacPorts or Fink just  
to install one program that I wanted, this machine is set up to be  
kinda "lean and mean", but I guess I'll have to. I really wasn't  
expecting this to be this difficult, I've successfully built a couple  
of versions of Bind on a couple of different machines (including this  
one) without much issue (plus the pkg_config and gettext  
prerequisites for this) so I didn't fear doing this build myself.

Ha, live and learn I guess.

Thanks!

The trouble with doing something right the first time
is that nobody appreciates how difficult it was.
