Based on recent discussions about updating old base packages, I've gone ahead and redid some basic testing of gettext-0.18 since 0.18.1.1 is the current release (my previous attempt was with 0.18).
As noted in my last message, I was 60% sure the linuxdcpp failure with 0.18 was a runtime failure, but I do not see that happening with gettext-0.18.1.1 (or at least it's not immediate, though I don't remember how the failure was manifested). As for gnash (the other package I had that didn't like newer gettext), given that firefox-x11 is dead and gnash by extension, I see no reason to use gnash as a blocker either. The only compilation failure I got while building linuxdcpp was finding a bug that old clang tickled by xgettext.c and is fixed with -O0 <http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=9892>. I believe clang is fixed in Xcode 4.2-final (I'm still on 4.1), so presumably gettext-tools-0.18.1.1 would need a BDep on that in order to remove the -O0 flag. You can see my revived gettext-0.18.1.1 .infos here <http://cvs.snaggledworks.com/viewvc.cgi/fink/3rdparty/main/finkinfo/base/>. Please test it (and modify as needed) if it's wanted for dists/stable.
