Not sure if it's the best advice, but I did this for a load of
gtranslator po files recently (changed 'translator_credits' to
'translator-credits' in all files with sed), and found a couple of them
would no longer commit (due to new msgfmt checks). I fixed those cases
where I could and simply commented out the ones that I couldn't (only a
handful of cases). Hopefully, next time the translators looks over those
files they'll get fixed up properly.

What version of gettext are you using?
I just checked, the version of gettext running on container for the
commit check is 0.11.4. I didn't realise it was that ancient!
I just tried to rebuild a more recent one (from FC4's 0.14.3 SRPM), but
it's not playing nicely with the older auto* environment on the
gnome.org servers (and I don't fancy upgrading all that too just to
rebuild a gettext RPM!).
CCing infrastructure: Consider this a 'todo' item to upgrade gettext on
container. Or, arrange to get the machines upgraded to RHEL4 (or
anything more up-to-date than bloody RHEL3!!!).
