It seems that Emacs has a problem detecting the correct encoding of compressed PO files. Attached is a compressed PO file "de.po.gz" in utf-8 encoding which Emacs failed to display correctly. The German umlauts were displayed as octal sequences. This problem does not occur if the file is either uncompressed or renamed to some other name which does not indicate a PO file, e.g. "junk.gz".
