The documentation and file gettext-tools/src/plural-table.c mention that
Brazilian Portuguese uses the singular form for 0 and 1, and plural for
n>1. That's incorrect in that the singular form is only used for 1, 0
uses the plural form just like English and many other languages. I'm
attaching a patch that fixes that.
A second patch adds the plural form for pt to the table.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Correct pt_BR plural form Brazilian Portuguese (like many
other languages) has a form for one item and another for any other quantity,
including 0. The previous formula was using the singular form for 0.
