That's probably because the language is still declared as English. As
soon as you declare the language as something else, these generated
texts should be OK too. If you look at the French po, you will find
this:

#. type: Plain text
#: doc/guix.texi:7
msgid "@documentencoding UTF-8"
msgstr ""
"@documentencoding UTF-8\n"
"@documentlanguage fr\n"
"@frenchspacing on"

@documentlanguage =E2=80=A6 is what you want to add. @frenchspacing is for
displaying only one space between sentences in generated files which is
the correct way to do it in French.

Maybe we could automate that a bit?
