An extreme case is: Hg translated 'hg --versoin' and broke many other software.
For example, redmine had to grep hg version properly using 'LC_ALL=C
hg --version'.

I think Duy‘s patch maybe better for such cases.

The call of interactive_use makes translations only available for human
but not for interchange and permanently stored.
