	I'm not a gettext guru but I think that this is a limitation of
gettext:

http://www.gnu.org/manual/gettext/html_mono/gettext.html#SEC153

	Look at section end. The proposal is:

- Compose larger string/modify slightly. This doesn't seem applicable or
is, at least, obscure.

- Use of different domains. I think this is not appropiate.

	So I think we have a problem here.

	I think that we should detect conflicting results and fix at least
these in the short term.
