For me it seems that po file is okay, but still the translation for
this string is not visible. I've tested this with Evince, and the
string with © shows untranslated even though po file contains it
translated.

This is my self compiled (jhbuild) Evince with GNOME 2.10 branch from
CVS. Other libs (libc etc.) are from Debian sarge, and some versions
are following:
gettext (GNU gettext-runtime) 0.14.1
intltool-update (intltool) 0.33

Is this global problem or should it really work? I didn't notice
anything special from the bug report what could be a problem.
