Unfortunatly there looks to be a regression here :-(

I just tested CVS HEAD on my Fedora rawhide box.  A judicious "print moFile"
statement in GettextTranslationDb __init__ shows that it's loading the moFile
for every single language, not just the one under test (and it does it for
every package in the dependenct chain, so it's a lot of mo files...)  

LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 ./gedit-test-utf8-procedural-api.py

This fatal error is isolatable to a simple reproducer:

  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?

    plural = v[1].split('plural=')[1]
IndexError: list index out of range

Do you want me to file separate bugs for:
(i) the multilanguage loading thing?
(ii) the mo file that can't be loaded?

It may be that various translation files are broken (e.g. the specific one
above), and that's causing the problem, but if so the loading of excessive
numbers of language files is more likely to trigger that bug.

Grrrr :-(
