The problem is with the check itself which is:

  msgconv -t UTF-8 POFILE | diff -u POFILE - >/dev/null

msgconv normalizes encoding to UTF-8 when it's simply lowercase
"utf-8", so the diff fails.

I am thinking of the easiest way to fix this, and your files won't
fail anymore once that is done (fixing, not thinking :).

Cheers,
