 This shows gettext was already installed.

 After you install or update any port, MacPorts then checks if there are
 any linking errors in any of the ports that are installed:

 MacPorts found that clisp had linking errors and needed to be rebuilt.

 MacPorts reinstalled gettext, this time with the universal variant. This
 is because clisp is not available in a 64-bit version. This was in fact
 probably the only linking error: clisp was trying to link with the non-
 existent 32-bit version of gettext. clisp would probably have worked fine
 if you interrupted the install here.

 MacPorts rebuilt clisp and found it now works fine. So your 60m25s build
 time includes not only gettext but also clisp, which I haven't tested.

 In any case it doesn't look like there is a problem building gettext or
 clisp.
