Comment:
Hm, according to the gettext manual
(http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/gettext.html#Header-Entry)
{{{POT-Creation-Date}}} will be filled out by xgettext and {{{PO-Revision-
Date}}} "by the PO file editor when you save the file". In other words:
{{{PO-Revision-Date}}} doesn't have anything to do with
collection/updating translation strings but with the actual translation by
the translators, as in "When was this file revised last time?".
As long as we use the *.po files for the same purpose as *.pot files,
{{{POT-Creation-Date}}} is the field that is updated automatically.
I'm changing this to someday/maybe since we shouldn't redefine the meaning
of gettext's header fields.
