A comment in gettext-tools/src/x-python.c states:

    The \ooo and \xnn values are in the current source encoding.

This is false. According to <http://python.org/doc/ref/strings.html>:

In a string literal, hexadecimal and octal escapes denote the byte with the given value; it is not necessary that the byte encodes a character in the source character set. In a Unicode literal, these escapes denote a Unicode character with the given value.
