>Description:
Gencat will discard sequences of \ddd in the message strings as
it does not increment the pointer where it is copying the
destination string into...
>How-To-Repeat:
Run gencat on the following file contents:
$quote " this was generated from a .h file
$set 1 simple test example
1 "Ceci est pour demontre le probl\350me."
and then run "od -xc" on the output file. It will show
"... le problme." with the egrave deleted.
