[sanvila@unex.es: Re: Bug#57136: gettext: please apply patch from GCC developers to support --keyword=WORD:3]

[Zack Weinberg]

I got this from the Debian gettext maintainer.  I had asked him to
apply the patch for --keyword=WORD:3 to their package, since the next
release of gettext is not happening anytime soon.  He did this, and
has now found a problem with the patch.

I think we need a ; after the 'done', as well as a backslash at the
end of that line.

Hello.

I've received two reports saying there is a missing `\' here:

So I'm going to add it to the Debian version.

Do you know whether or not GCC developers are aware of this?

Thanks.
