p5-gettext-locale failure during Staging p5-locale-gettext into destroot

Hi,

Installation or updating many packages fails for p5-gettext-locale in the staging phase. Below are the relevant lines obtained with port -vd install p5-locale-gettext (run as root):

I haven't found what "$post $targetname" expands to, so I can't debug what's wrong - any pointers appreciated.

Thanks, Karel
