Comment (by technobauble):

 Preface: I'm still somewhat new to this, so, thanks for your patience.

 Yes, I added it because intltool appeared to depend on it. I recently
 upgraded to Mojave, and haven't reinstalled most of my ports yet. So, I
 figured it was just missed.

 The bug you referenced is years old, and it doesn't look like intltool is
 actually even being developed anymore. I doubt that it will ever be
 officially patched.

 Without the dependency, I get the following output, which doesn't use the
 identifier INTLTOOL_PERL... but perhaps it is the same issue?

 Actually, when I just reproduced this, it asked me to install the p5.28
 -xml-parser port as a dependency (I uninstalled all versions to reproduce
 the output)... which it did. So, clearly there is a larger issue here.

 I guess I'm not entirely sure what you're asking me to do. I can't fix
 intltool, and I don't think this is an issue with pcb, as we don't
 actually require XML::Parser (which is I suppose a reason it shouldn't be
 on my dependency list). If I remove the dependency, then it doesn't build
 unless the right package happens to already be on the system.

 I'm sorry for being dense, but can you please be a little more explicit
 with your instructions? Are you asking me to distribute and apply the
 intltool patch as part of the pcb port?

 Thanks,\\
