Thank you guys for anwers.
Following the tendency described by Egor, my first step working with Poedit
was selection of UTF as default coding. Then I realized that due to my
conversion of *.po files from ISO to UTF most of translation was treated as
"changes".
After that I checked if it is possible to switch again to ISO without major
problems. And it works.
So probably this is not so important issue at the moment...
