Hello Sylvain,
I'm making progress, but more issues appear. :-)

Ok, using GettextStub.Native the translation works!
Here is my definition of my program's Gettext module:
module Gettext = Gettext.Program
(struct
let textdomain = "demexp"
let codeset = Some "UTF-8"
let dir = None
let dependencies = Gettext.init
end)
(GettextStub.Native)
The .glade translation works when calling my program with:
$ echo $LANG
fr_FR.UTF-8
$ ./gtk2-clnt/demexp-gtk2-client --gettext-dir build/share/locale/po/
A question: why do I need to give the final po/ directory? I though that
I should give "build/share/locale/", as the default for gettext-dir is
["/usr/share/locale"; "/usr/local/share/locale"].
But now working translation raises another issue: call to printf are
modified!!
For example, if at the end of a module I put:
let _ = Printf.printf "1.0 = %3.3f\n" 1.0
I get as result when launching above program:
1.0 = 1,000
It is obvious that the locale is taken into account for printing the
string. But this seems quite strange to me, as I do not use an _s
function in this call to printf.
This behaviour is a issue to me because:
- I want to control when a sentence is interpreted as translatable or
not;
- I'm having autotest where I check hard-coded results for certain
function calls. This behaviour breaks them.

Ok, it seems that call to "f_" and the like are working with
GettextStub.Native, so I don't need to use simultaneously
GettextStub.Native and GettextCamomile.Map.
Is it an issue to use GettextStub.Native?
Best wishes,
d.
