I think these files are right. Let's do a small test: I've created a po=20
file that contains this (and a po header):

# type: Plain text
msgid "bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla =
bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla=
 "
msgstr ""

when I run msgcat with this file, it returns:

# type: Plain text
msgid ""
"bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bl=
a "
"bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla "
msgstr ""

msgcat is a gettext tool, so I must think it's a correct file formatting.=
=20
Then you should report it as a bug to the programs that doesn't handle it=
=20
right.
