Details:

When using <default l10n='time'>'24h'</default> in a gsettings schema file to
define a LC_TIME dependent default value, gettext only seems to recognize the
presence of the "l10n" attribute but not the "time" value. This causes the
translation to use the messages category rather than the time one. But
gsettings will be looking for translations in the time category and not be
able to find it.

This is currently blocking a fix using translations for this issue in GNOME:
