thanks.

why not use "iconv" to convert po files on the fly during configuration
process?

a new rule with something like "iconv -f iso-8859-1 -t utf-8 po/xx.po >
po/xx.po-new" should do the trick (with some more coding to detect and
update the "content-type" header field for each converted po file).

and why not a new configure's option to let the user choose himself how
to convert translations (something like "--with-i18n=utf-8") according
to its needs?

I've never saw that in any other project, but...

just ideas...

bye
