Aren't you confusing ab/i18n-scripts-basic with ab/i18n-scripts? The
former just adds the infrastructure, the latter adds some eval_gettext
invocations that break on Windows while I haven't submitted some fixup
patches for what's now in *next*, not master.

If anything's breaking on Windows in master it would be the
t/t0201-gettext-fallbacks.sh test which uses some eval_gettext()
calls, but nothing else uses it currently.

There isn't and can't be without major re-organizations because
shellscripts don't have something like the C preprocessor.

But I'll just fix the Windows issue soon and submit a new series for
inclusion in next.
