PO problems with formatting

[Glynn Foster <Glynn Foster Sun COM>]

Hey,

We're having a few problems with the formatting of some of the po files
in the GNOME 2.13.x stack. It seems some of them have DOS style
formatting ie. having ^M at the end. For an example of a typical bug -

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=324708

For now we're getting around this by doing a simple sed in our build
scripts, and trying to investigate whether msgfmt on Solaris needs
fixing. However, given that we've got something like the
po-commits-prep.pl commit hook for CVS, is this something we could check
for there? I think it's a useful thing to do.

Thoughts?
