The checks were wrong. I checked on a macos, and the failure happens only with LC_ALL=C. This is something we already experienced in the past with libintl-perl. Both Perl calling gettext and the C only teximakehtml call fail to translate strings. So it seems to be a failure to switch locale in tp/Texinfo/XS/main/translations.c translate_string when LC_ALL is C. The same symptoms arise for cygwin-64 and macos-13. I have access to a macos, so I could try to investigate more later on, when I find time. -- Pat
