I don't know why that should be. What errors are you getting?

I'm not entirely clear whether you are trying to build inside XCode
or with the normal configure command line. In either event, I suggest
you disable building the internationalisation resources (pofiles) and
svn-versioning until you have the rest of the build system working.
This will get you past the gettext problem for now, though clearly
it needs to be solved later.

Using configure, you can do this by
 ./configure --disable-svnversion --disable-international

In XCode, there is something (I'm not sure quite what) that runs
build-resources.pl. You need to ensure that it is NOT passed
-i (international) or -s (svnversion) flags. In general you
need to run this script on each build. If you are building with
your ".o" files along side the source, you should not need any
flags. Otherwise, use "-t" and "-o" as appropriate (see the
help) and that's all you should require.
