Hello, this exactly happens with gettext when you try to get a
translation of an empty string.  Thus somewhere in Orca, there must be
an empty string passed to the _() function.  What you describe is the
translation file header...  I didn't follow this thread, but it seems
this information might clarify this problem.  Best regards, Tomas.
