Thanks to a notification by Carlos I changed the middle dot detection
method in gtranslator from using "" which is already reserved by gettext
for it's header parts of the po files to "Y"; as this is a quite
important point (it's also explained in the source comment over the
source file runtime-config.c and with this also within the message
comment but well, you never know if the translator reads the comments at
all) so here we go:
If your locale doesn't support the display/usage of the middle dot
('·') then you must translate the new message with the msgid "Y"
into something different then "Y"; into "Z" or something another.
This way you avoid gtranslator using middle dot and mixing your
locale's text display up.
PS: This change was committed to both stable and HEAD branches.
