Hello Vadim,

In this situation, we have:

 - aumix
 - host-guile
 - host-intltool (perhaps legit ?)
 - host-libglib2
 - libv4l (for AM_ICONV m4 macro)
 - linphone
 - mediastreamer
 - host-mono
 - sysstat (which also uses TARGET_NLS_DEPENDENCIES... weird)
 - tvheadend
 - host-wine
 - xkeyboard-config
 - zbar (for AM_ICONV m4 macro)

Looks OK to me. I think the choice between gettext and gettext-tiny is
really a top-level decision, so it probably belongs near the "Enable
Native Language Support (NLS)" option in "System configuration".

Best regards,
