cannot find -lintl

I recently returned to Codelite - very impressed by the changes.
At present I am trying to build wxFormbuilder using the supplied Codelite workspace files and wxWidgets 2.8.12, compiled as static lib from the wxMSW zip, using mingw32-make

The release build runs without any errors, a few warnings, except for the actual application where the build terminates with:
c:/mingw-4.7.1/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.1/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lintl
<<Edit>>
I have meanwhile concluded that this refers to a library which cannot be found, but since it does not seem to be a wxWidgets library, where is it expected to come from?
I don't see the name (or anything like it) in the MinGW-4..7.1 lib directory either.
<</edit>>
This may well be a problem with the code from wxFormbuilder, but I thought I'd more likely get help on this forum.

My usual environment is MSVC, so I am quite lost here.
Any help will be most appreciated.

TIA
Arnold

I have located the necessary library and am now looking to resolve the rest of the issues.
