required by some port to have gettext available.
Be warned: Building tools requires a long time.

This regressed time to install gettext from 5 minutes to 45 minutes. :(

@BillyONeal This didn't regress gettext. Before only gettext-runtime was build. With tools everything gettext has to offer is build. That is a significant difference. But i agree that there should be something done to make it faster. As far as I remember mist of the time is spend compressing some archive?
