True, but -- as Bruno announced the last year or so -- this should be
changed the next time.  And, actually, a recent gettext ChangeLog entry
says:

2002-11-05  Bruno Haible  <bruno@clisp.org>

	Allow non-ASCII msgids in POT files.
	* po-charset.h (po_charset_utf8): New declaration.
       [...]
	* write-po.c (message_print, message_print_obsolete): Don't warn about
	non-ASCII msgids if the file's encoding is UTF-8.
	* msginit.c (content_type): Add header argument. Use charset UTF-8
	if that was already the POT file's encoding.
	(fields): Update.
	* msgmerge.c (merge): If the POT file was in UTF-8, convert the
	definitions to UTF-8.
	* msgcmp.c (compare): Likewise.

I guess 0.11.6 will support UTF-8 encoded msgid's :-)
