Comment (by develop at ohlmeier.org):

 I'm experiencing the same bug: I have gettext 0.16.1_0 installed and can
 not upgrade to 0.17_1 becaus of this bug.[[BR]]

 And yes I'm running Leopard.

 Two minors notes:[[BR]]

 - I do not have emacs installed, at least not from ports. So it tries to
 use the emcas which comes with Mac OS X, and that one seems to broken (it
 always exists with this 'Fatal malloc_jumpstart() error' message).[[BR]]

 - as a vi user I do not see why I should install emacs to get gettext
 running. It should hopefully be easier to tell gettext to ignore the
 emacs. At least there is this 'emacs != no' check before this, althought I
 did not figured out yet how I could convince gettext to not use emacs. I
 would prefer that over getting a dependency to emcas from gettext.
