 That's not what I'm asking. Is the text in the <description> and <label>
 elements in the --interface-description output encoded in EUC-JP or in
 UTF-8? If it's EUC-JP, then the header should say encoding=EUC-JP. If it's
 in UTF-8, the header should say encoding=UTF-8.

 > I did not have success with encoding=EUC-JP while the .po files are in
 UTF8. Same of course for encoding=CP932.

 The encoding of the .po files is irrelevant. `dgettext()` converts the
 strings from the .mo files to the locale's encoding, so that you don't
 need separate .mo files for e.g. LANG=ja_JP (Japanese, EUC-JP) and
 LANG=ja_JP.utf-8 (Japanese, UTF-8).
