Re: "unterminated character constant" during 'make update-po'

[Karl Berry]

Hi Benno,

    Maybe the whole texindex/ subdir needs to be excluded from where
    xgettext is looking for translatable strings?

gettext supports awk, so it seems like it should be usable, one way or
another.

However, I just realized that none of the strings in ti.twjr are showing
up in the .pot file, perhaps for the same reason as your crash -- it
can't be usefully parsed as C, for sure.  I'll look into it.

Maybe we'll end up having to use texindex.awk, which would be
suboptimal, but presumably better than no translations at all.

Incidentally, I have run make update-po a zillion times and never seen
those warnings, let alone that crash.  Maybe that part was a bug in 0.17.

Thanks for the report,
Karl
