I'm sorry about this. I wanted to be 'clever' and put in the regression
fix without having to do an UI and string freeze break, but that
evidently backfired :-(

Alternatively, I could take the generated schemas file from a 2.22
build and put them into an extra schemas file, so there
won't be any extra strings to translate. That would get only those
translations present in 2.22 the translated strings, but since they're
gconf only and rather dull, it shouldn't be too bad. This avoids the
string freeze break.

I can do a 2.24.1.1 release asap if you tell me which one you prefer.

Sorry again,
