This is because your gettext package from your distribution is too old,
and msgfmt doesn't understand some newer keywords of the libglib2 .po
files.
Peter, maybe we should build gettext for the host instead of relying on
the distribution msgfmt ? What do you think ? Or should be add a check
to verify that msgfmt is sufficiently recent ?
Regards,
Thomas
