 More feedback from the Gnome side:
 
 Solaris 10 msgfmt actually gives only a warning when the "" on the line
 after msgid is omitted. Any tool that gives an error on it is therefore
 more picky than necessary.
 
 You better remove that version of msgfmt from your disk immediately.
 Version 0.10.35 of msgfmt does not support CJK encoded PO files;
 actually for Big5 or Shift_JIS encoded PO files it produces wrong .mo
 files. This is why this version is no longer available from ftp.gnu.org.
 You better use gettext 0.10.40 or newer!!!
