Failed to run installer-gui

I have FreeBSD 6.2 and want to install XFCE-4.4.1 using a graphical installer. But I've received error message:

Compiling installer-gui... OK.
Running installer-gui... failed, see /root/.xfce4.installer-log for details

/root/.xfce4.installer-log :

Re: Failed to run installer-gui

Now I tried to build XFCE from it's sources myself and found another bug: compilation of libxfce4util-4.4.1 stopped because gi18n.h couldn't find libintl.h (/usr/local/include/libintl.h). So I had to type `sh configure CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include/` and compilation went OK.

Oh, libxfce4mcs-4.4.1 has the same problem:

In file included from /usr/local/include/xfce4/libxfce4util/xfce-i18n.h:35,
                 from /usr/local/include/xfce4/libxfce4util/libxfce4util.h:34,

I cannot make xfce-mcs-manager-4.4.1. After successful `sh configure` I saw these messages:

Re: Failed to run installer-gui

When installing xfce4-mcs-manager from ports I've got more detailed information:

file=`echo ar | sed 's,.*/,,'`.gmo \
&& rm -f $file && -o $file ar.po
-o: not found

Makefile:

GMSGFMT =  :?
MSGFMT =  :?
................................
.po.gmo:
file=`echo $* | sed 's,.*/,,'`.gmo \
&& rm -f $$file && $(GMSGFMT) -o $$file $<

GMSGFMT and MSGFMT are empty variables. And it is not only in xfce4-mcs-manager.
I fixed it with
GMSGFMT = msgfmt
MSGFMT = msgfmt

I hope you'll fix all these bugs.
