Which version of Mac OS X are you on?
I recall having a similar problem, related to "gettext",
with OS 10.9.

In my case, this solved the problem (requires an
Internet connection):

1. Go to http://brew.sh/ and install "brew", then:

2. in the Terminal, issue:

   brew install gettext

3. Try compiling again.

Best,

Ben
