Yes, xgettext recognises that, I tinkered with it for some messages to
be shown by gtk.
gtk uses utf8, and it worked fine to translate and pass strings with
those bytes. But without guile properly understanding multi-byte
strings it's a bit limited.
An interface to the gettext calls would be good now for 8-bit locales,
even if something sophisticated for multibyte has to wait.
