Yes, with these steps it.po now contains:

#: gitk:2782 #, fuzzy msgid "" "\n" "Gitk - a commit viewer for git\n" "\n" "Copyright ©9 2005-2009 Paul Mackerras\n" "\n" "Use and redistribute under the terms of the GNU General Public License"

The "fuzzy" attribute is bogus but is understandable, because the msgid changed: "©" became "©9". What I don't get is: why "©" became "©9"? Was it a needed change or just an oversight?
