Comment 5 for bug 790574

I've looked into this in more detail. It seems the one regression would be that xgettext doesn't extract comments for translators. There are other incompatibilities as well, but they seem to stem from intltool supporting very wildly marked up strings (eg. it will extract a string "that" from code (func "this" _"that")). We'll have to check how this affects existing current users of scm support in intltool.
