Maybe we're talking of different things. I don't know gettext.
GWT Constants/Messages work the same way like file-based
ResourceBundles in Java. This technique is documented e.g. at
http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/ResourceBundle.html
and (talking of the property-file-format) at
http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/PropertyResourceBundle.html

This might be the reason why you don't find very much information
about that in the documentation of GWT because it's assumed that
Java-developers are already aware of this technique.

If you have no translation-framework this might be true. GWT itself
has no such framework. It expects property-files that can be read
in and do exactly that. Nothing more and nothing less.
