No, this isn't right. We no longer need to generate the strings file
for glade widgets -- the strings are pulled directly from the glade
xml sources by inttool. If you are seeing this error, your
po/POTFILES.in is out of date. If you are working in glade,
do not turn on the option to generate the translatable strings
files.
