Details:
Running xgettext on the following PHP code does not add the translation
comments to the generated .po file:
<?php
// L10N: Here is a comment
dgettext(
'Core',
'Some text'
);
Generated .po file:
# SOME DESCRIPTIVE TITLE.
# Copyright (C) YEAR THE PACKAGE'S COPYRIGHT HOLDER
# This file is distributed under the same license as the PACKAGE package.

Playing about with comments, I found that I had to put the translation comment
immediately above the "Some text" line instead of above the function
invocation which makes the code confusing to read for future developers.
