something is wrong on your system ... --disable-nls is a valid flag (and works fine over here) go into the temp directory and run the script by hand and see if it issues the same warning: ./configure --disable-nls
Maybe the profile is wrong?

unpack the psmisc tarball by hand and run configure in there and see if you still get the warning

yeah ok i did some poking and found the issue ... it's nothing to worry about as the warning is harmless
should be worked around for now ... the next version of psmisc should have proper nls handling which means all the USE=-nls hacks in the ebuild can get dropped
