Unfortunately, this is possible and after some testing even likely.

But this raises more questions :(.
First I deleted po/da.gmo, expecting that `make` or `make install` will 
regenerate it. But they didn't. Instead `make install` raised an error:
```
/usr/bin/install: cannot stat './da.gmo': No such file or directory
installing ./da.gmo as 
/home/enrico/build/build_geany/share/locale/da/LC_MESSAGES/geany.mo
```
but it continued to install everything else.

After studying `po/Makefile` a bit, I noticed there is a target `update-gmo` 
which regenerates the `*.gmo' files. This target is only indirectly by 
`update-po`.
This would explain why @b4n and me had some old files laying around and why we 
probably have distributed outdated language files on Windows already since a 
long time.

I wonder if this is normal behavior or something uncommon in our use.

If it is meant like this, I will update the Windows build process to enforce 
regenerating the gmo files (probably use a clean build clone).

@techee might be the macOS builds affected by this as well?

@scootergrisen if you want, you can try the attached `geany.mo` file and copy 
it to `C:\Program Files\Geany\share\locale\da\LC_MESSAGES` (or whereever you 
have Geany installed).
