The other option I thought of was to continue keeping the gettext executables in a package called "gettext-bin", which would now become a splitoff of "gettext2" and get a later version number. The newer versions of gettext-bin would depend on gettext2-shlibs not gettext. The problem with this approach is that iw would be difficult to "go back" to earlier versions. (It's particularly hard for apt-get users, since I don't believe apt-get will recognize the older versions.) This would also mean that we have to make gettext2-shlibs into an Essential package immediately, since the latest version of the Essential package gettext-bin would depend on it.
Another possibility is to append the version to the executables, and use update-alternatives to link them up.
