The cpplib messages will continue to be in gcc.pot on the 3.4 branch, with
no separate cpplib domain. The concern is that the future work of
translators on those messages in gcc.pot gets transferred to their
cpplib.pot translations when 3.5 branches (quite likely not for six months
or more yet).

If there is anything wrong with it other than the statement that
submission of .pot files for releases is automatic, please let us know
what is wrong.
