| Actually, I'm starting to wonder if the culprit is bad documentation in
| propername.h.  It recommends:
|
| ~           --keyword=proper_name:1,"This is a proper name. See the gettext
| manual, section Names."
| ~           --keyword=proper_name_utf8:1,"This is a proper name. See the
| gettext manual, section Names."

Yep - that was the culprit.  After reading 'info xgettext', it looks like
the extended specifier to --keyword was added in xgettext 0.15, but it
needs literal " in its argument.  So, I ended up using this instead:

~  --keyword=proper_name:1,'"This is a proper name. See the gettext manual,
section Names."' \
~  --keyword=proper_name_utf8:1,'"This is a proper name. See the gettext
manual, section Names."' \

Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
