I'm thinking this: - The function doesn't actually need to work to build the .po files. It just looks for _(). - At the point where OCitySMap actually needs the translation, gettext will have been imported and overwritten the mocked _() - If in the former step the mocked _() persists in the instantiated class, some meta programming could replace the class's pointer to the mock _() with a pointer to the real function. > I had a quick look at that tonight, and I don't see how to solve the > problem.
