Subject:   gdk-pixbuf has indirect gettext dependency

Howdy,

I was doing the gettext dance on one of my systems today, and discovered
that gdk-pixbuf has an indirect dependency on gettext, seemingly
inherited through gtk. So the following procedure:

install a bunch of stuff
gettext is updated, and bumps .so version number
uninstall gettext, glib, gtk
reinstall above
try to run any app linked with gdk-pixbuf   *BOOM*

fails, since gdk-pixbuf won't be able to find the old version of
libintl.so.

The solution seems to be adding a direct dependency on gettext in
gdk-pixbuf's Makefile. This should be a no-op in the clean build case,
since gtk requires gettext too.

HTH,

Doug
