 At this point, you'll probably have to rebuild all the ports that
 depended on the old gettext.  The portupgrade tools minimize this risk
 by preserving old shlibs in /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg, so you can
 upgrade dependant ports at your leisure.
 

 Before upgrading just about _everything_ (which you will do if you
upgrade dependencies in gettext) try upgrading your GNOME-ish ports, I
found these were the holdouts when doing as you originally did.

A quicker (but working so far) way. till you have time to update all your
ports.

ln -s /usr/local/lib/libintl.so /usr/local/lib/libintl.so.4

(probably not recomemded for long term use though. but was enough for me to
get X with GNOME running again.
