Actually, I didn't know which maintainer to contact; this all  
happened after updating gettext this weekend.  After needing to  
recompile lftp to get it to work, I came to think I'd need to  
recompile everything depending on gettext, so I recompiled  
Kdelibs3.   Kdelibs3 compiled beautifully a few weeks ago without any  
help (and without the new gettext).
