Problem: No Problem! Only some documentation is out dated.
I hope this is the correct way how I communicate changes
from which I think they could be helpful not only to me.
If not, please show me the correct way. Thanks!
Solution: This unofficial context patch.

+ Another possibility is to use the gnuwin32 port of gettext. This is
+ recommended especially if you use already gnuwin32 tools to gunzip, bunzip,
+ patch etc. these files. You find the gnuwin32 version of gettext here:
+
+ http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gettext.htm
+
+ Yet another very strait forward way is to get the sources of gettext from
+
+ http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/gettext.html
+
+ and build your own version of these tools. The documentation states that this
+ should be possible with MSVC4.0, MSVC5.0, MSVC6.0 or MSVC7.0, but you can
+ build it even successfully with MSVC8.0.

You will also need to edit the file names in the comments in the .po file.
You need to remove the absolute directory specification (which has the form
c:\vim61\src\). You can do this in Vim with the following command with the
! appropriate directory specfication for where you have installed the Vim
source:
%s/c:\\vim61\\src\\//g
