could you try -r23 -r25 or 1.2.8 ?
Yup,I'm using 1.2.8-r3 now successfully.
I had the same problem with a new install yesterday, but xmms-1.2.8 compiles and works ok.

I have the same problems myself. The reason I believe is the fact that the author reffered to in tonegenerator.c:50 is called "Håvard Kvålen". The two times the letter 'å' is reffered to somehow seem to break xgettext, which complains about non-ascii code. The letter is however perfectly legal in the Western Europen code page. And stands for aa, which is pronounced similar to a prolonged 'o'. Enough chit-chat, something is broken with the build, and it should be masked, that's the most important.
Hey seemant, should we just remove -r20 since -r23 is stable with the gettext fix patch?
jeremy, agreed
1.2.7-r20 has been removed from portage
