>How-To-Repeat:
Got that error when trying to build meta-pkgs/gnome 2.14.
>Fix:
I don't know gettext very well, but I noticed that this line where msgfmt reports a parse error (4235) was the only one in the whole lot to be blank between a msgid and msgstr. Removing it seems to fix the problem.

(Trying to post UTF-8 chars in the patch.)
