Hmm, I'm trying to get to the bottom of this. Thanks for the heads up. I remember seeing the error only when compiling findutils, which uses the canonicalize; maybe the error stemmed from a combination of modules in use at the same time, in which it is not canonicalize that directly depends on LIBINTL, but one of the other modules which it was interacting with. I'll see if I can reproduce the actual failure, by temporarily reverting that patch. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
