devel/gettext (which installed gettext-0.10.35_1) moved to
devel/gettext-old and devel/gettext-devel (which installed
gettext-0.10.40_1) moved to devel/gettext.

you need to run "pkgdb -F" and replace the origin for gettext-0.10.40
with devel/gettext.  This borks the gettext-0.10.35_1 installation,
which is still required by other things, so I installed gettext-old
and all was well.
