It relies on an external library, so that won't be a good thing. gettext is not available for every platform, and we are not going to bundle it.
I agree. Bundling everything is not good.
it's even more tricky in case of gettext, as its functions are available as a seperate library, but are also part of GNU glibc, which is the default system C library on Linux OTOH making setlocale() and gettext() work fine with ZTS without overwriting language settings for other threads might require some patching of the library functions themselve, so that might be an argument *for* bundling in this case ... -- Hartmut Holzgraefe hartmut@six.de http://www.six.de/ +49-711-99091-77
