I notice that gettextize pulls in a bunch of sed scripts and headers to
generate en quot po [1], but glib-gettextize doesn't.  Is this a
limitation of glib-gettextize or is there some other good reason to not
do this?  (For example: it works in a different way / Unicode quotes are
bad / etc.)

[1] (Though I can't for the life of me figure out how these
scripts get invoked-- how does this Rules-quot become part of the
Makefile?)
