Two problems: * When compiling the main app, -lintl needs to be added to the link line. I do not want to touch the autoconf stuff. * When running with LANG=fr: During file_ops_post_init, there is a weird file_proc->menu_path for 'GtkIFCBData' (string pointer = 2). I am tracking this one down. Adding a test for weird pointers allows Gimp to start, and looks like everything works including translated messages.
