When you run
{{{
$ bin/make-messages -l aa_BB -d django
}}}
as per http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/i18n/#how-to-create-
language-files and there isn't a {{{conf/locale/aa_BB/LC_MESSAGES}}}
already, the resulting {{{django.po}}} has errors of this kind:

Note the spurious {{{msgstr "Plural-Forms: nplurals=INTEGER;
plural=EXPRESSION;\n"}}}.
This is because the script strips the header generated by {{{xgettext}}}
by droping the first 17 lines. But for some source code files
{{{xgettext}}} generates an aditional 18th line with a
{{{
Plural-Forms: nplurals=INTEGER; plural=EXPRESSION;\n"
}}}
header field. After the stripping this line ends right after the last
untranslated literal from the previous file, i.e.:
{{{
msgid "Filter"
msgstr ""
}}}
and either {{{msguniq}}} o {{{msgmerge}}} unificates this
to
{{{
msgid "Filter"
msgstr "Plural-Forms: nplurals=INTEGER; plural=EXPRESSION;\n"
}}}
This problem should also affect the generation of
{{{conf/locale/en/LC_MESSAGES/django.po}}}. Don't know if this problem can
manifest itself when updating a catalog that already has some
translations.
Find attached a patch that solves this by searching in the file just
generated by {{{xgettext}}} for the first empty line to detect the end of
the header.
