Comment:

 Those changes should not be necessary. The port builds fine for me as-is.

 Comparing your log to mine, the material difference seems to be that yours
 says:

 {{{
 :info:configure checking for bindtextdomain in -lintl... no
 :info:configure checking if -liconv is needed to use gettext...
 :info:configure checking for ngettext in -lintl... no
 }}}

 while mine says:

 {{{
 :info:configure checking for bindtextdomain in -lintl... yes
 :info:configure checking for ngettext in -lintl... yes
 :info:configure checking for dgettext in -lintl... yes
 :info:configure checking for bind_textdomain_codeset... yes
 :info:configure checking for msgfmt... /opt/local/bin/msgfmt
 :info:configure checking for dcgettext... yes
 :info:configure checking for gmsgfmt... /opt/local/bin/msgfmt
 :info:configure checking for xgettext... /opt/local/bin/xgettext
 :info:configure checking for catalogs to be installed...  af am ar az be

 }}}

 In other words, your gettext -- libintl -- isn't working right. Try
 rebuilding gettext:

 {{{
 sudo port clean gettext
 sudo port -n upgrade --force gettext
 }}}

 Did you recently upgrade to Snow Leopard from an earlier OS? If so, you
 may have many more ports you need to rebuild; see [wiki:Migration
 Migration].

 Alternately, perhaps you have a broken libintl in /usr/local/lib; having
 things in /usr/local frequently derails MacPorts and is therefore not
 supported.
