For what it's worth between [1] and [2] I'm not sure what to do about
the test_i18ngrep cleanup. I think your patch below is fine, but the
"test_i18ngrep" has mutated into a "grep with debugging", not just
something needed for GETTEXT_POISON.

So that part of your patch right now is making it less friendly for
debugging. I don't care, and think if we want that we'd be better of
scraping the trace ouput for such common cases and/or use "verbose grep
[...]" and teach the "verbose" wrapper about these common cases, but
knowing of that objection + having other outstanding things has been why
I haven't sent s/test_i18ngrep/grep/g patches.
