System: NetBSD mara 1.5.4_ALPHA (MARA-$Revision: 1.1 $) #0: Wed Jul 9 11:37:12 CEST 2008 hauke@mara:/local/cvswork/netbsd/netbsd-1-5/src/sys/arch/mac68k/compile/MARA mac68k
Architecture: m68k

>Description:

	As reported in 
	<http://mail-index.netbsd.org/pkgsrc-users/2006/06/22/msg001977.html>, 
	on a NetBSD 1.5 system, building archivers/gtar-base fails with 

[...]
Making all in lib
/usr/bin/make-5_99_3  all-am
source='argp-help.c' object='argp-help.o' libtool=no  DEPDIR=.deps depmode=gcc /bin/sh ../build-aux/depcomp  cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I..    -I/usr/pkg/include  -O2 -pipe -I/usr/pkg/include -c -o argp-help.o argp-help.c
In file included from argp-help.c:50:
argp-fmtstream.h:132: `libintl_printf' is an unrecognized format function type
argp-fmtstream.h:135: `libintl_printf' is an unrecognized format function type
argp-help.c:579: warning: `always_inline' attribute directive ignored
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make-5_99_3: stopped in /var/obj/pkgsrc/archivers/gtar-base/work/tar-1.20/lib
*** Error code 1

	Looking around, I found the problem is related to a GNU gettext issue 
	reported against NetBSD 3 in 
	<http://groups.google.com/group/gnu.utils.bug/browse_thread/thread/ce43685b506fec17?hl=en&q=libintl_printf+is+an+unrecognized+format+function+type+group:gnu.utils.bug#19126020bd1b3aea>.

	The thread resulted in a patch
	<http://groups.google.com/group/gnu.utils.bug/msg/19126020bd1b3aea> which
	apparently was not pulled up to the 0.14.6 release branch installed 
	by pkgsrc.

>How-To-Repeat:

	On a NetBSD 1.5 system (probably any version before integration of gettext) 
	install gtar-base. Watch the build fail with the above error.

>Fix:
	Long term solution: Upgrade gettext packages.

	Short term solution: Add the patch
