Thanks for all of them. Please keep on notifying us about each of those 
untranslated strings :-)

Thanks. Are all marked for translation now.

Seems to me it should be the abbreviation for "Tax". To me, it seems a very 
U.S. thing to abbreviate various things on a form by one single letter -- you 
wouldn't do that in my home language at all. Whatever. In scheme there's no 
easy alternative compared to translating only one character (IIRC there is no 
disambiguation prefix / context prefix), so just translate it into an 
abbreviation for "Tax".

These should not appear in the translation pot file. I've removed the 
translatable="yes" marker for this. Thanks for pointing these out.
