Check your php.ini file to see if you are loading them.  If they are
compiled shared like your version, you need to tell php to load them.

Probably it is your php.ini that needs the tweaking.

No, but I'd bet some small amount of money you need to either add an
"extension=php_gettext.so" line to your php.ini, or uncomment an
existing line like that.

Not easily.  (The only way to do this is to write your own version of
each php gettext function used and include it in each page, or to
edit every horde file and remove all the gettext references... Obviously
the second choice would be a very bad choice, and the first isn't
really optimal either).
