AFAIR, I already tried to generate the POT file for gnucash in the past.
I think that the problem was multiline Scheme strings that intltool
doesn't parse properly. Hence the custom script.

I don't mind using a custom script, as far as:
1. the script can be run without building the project
2. the script is in a "common" language script (bash/Python/Perl), e.g.
installed by default in a standard Linux distributions.

Cheers,
