Probably, yes. I don't really think that's the kind of thing gettext is designed for. (Also, AIUI, using gettext would require that you actually *install* monotone, so the translation files get put in the right place. Probably not a nice thing to require for making automate work correctly.) Better to just have our errors include an error code and not rely on translation machinery for that.
