Jean (or should I say Jean Abou?) found the following gem:

 
https://github.com/lilypond/lilypond/blob/a2f89036bc6ed0147385ef04d1201cad3ad10fa7/python/book_snippets.py#L368

I think the problem was introduced in

  
https://gitlab.com/lilypond/lilypond/-/commit/d4a36739fbf2b85e3a6c85fdf76b482b8c07b656

from May 2010.  This means that the support for internationalized
snippets through gettext on variables and comments hasn't worked in
over 10 years (and nobody noticed?). To me this seems like a strong
signal that we should get rid of this feature.

thoughts?
