Ah, I see. This inspired me to do some further tests and I found a
solution that is more acceptable than doing what I don't want to do.

I found from some quick tests that it is rstconv that cannot handle the
encoded strings. Replacing them in the generated .po file seems to do
the trick.

Needs more testing but might be okay when done by some shellscript ...

Yes, as a last solution I'd have to do it that way. 

Thank you very much,
