[update] TLDR; as Dogukan commented: Mac OS Maverics brew install gettext; brew link gettext --force worked for me.

[update] user Lajarre reported: as of today (March 2014), I had to do brew install msgpack.

You need GNU gettext and gettext-tools.

If you use fink, try:

sudo fink install gettext-tools

You may need to add /sw/bin/ to your PATH if it is not there yet.

If you don't use fink, try brew:

brew install gettext
brew link gettext

[update] removed sudo call from the brew example as suggested by Dave and Jason.
