Well, the test above has little to do with intltool. But here is one:

1. take any valid po file (po1) with messages
2. leave only one message in it and replace its comment line with
something like  "#: 2345243.h:1"  (the bug seems to be related to the
name starting with number)
3. copy po1 (po2) and remove the message from the copy
4. msgmerge po2 po1 -o feh

feh will have one message with comment line "# 2345243.h:1" instead of
"#: 2345243.h:1"


I've tested this with gettext 0.11.4  and 0.10.40
