unable to install Alpine on Mac OS X

[dushanm at spinn.net]

After downloading and successfully installing MacPorts 1.8.2 on a MacPro
(4 Intel processors) running Snow Leopard 6.3, I tried to do a port install
of Alpine 2.00.  This failed for what looks to be the same reason as
described in Ticket #24954:
    Undefined symbols: _libintl_setlocale 

My system info: 

[~]$ => sw_vers
ProductName:	Mac OS X
ProductVersion:	10.6.3
BuildVersion:	10D573 

[~]$ => uname -a
Darwin DMs-Mac-Pro.local 10.3.0 Darwin Kernel Version 10.3.0: Fri Feb 26

Xcode:

  Get Info String:	Xcode version 3.2

I copied the output of 'sudo port -d install alpine @2.00' to a file and
can provide it if necessary, but my impression from the description on
Ticket #24954 is that the defect is still unresolved.  Is that correct? 

Thanks for any comments/suggestions.
