Since I haven't used Windows seriously in over 10 years, I need some
help here...

How difficult or easy is it to find a binary for gettext 0.15 (or later)
for Windows systems?

My reason for asking is that I would like to use a feature that was only
introduced in that version to provide context for messages where the
same string appears in two different places and should be translated
differently. There's an option to add msgctx alongside msgid and this
will provide translators with some help.

One obvious place where this appears is where we have "May" as a three
character abbreviation as well as "May" as the full month name. In some
languages, those two will be different translations, so we can mark them
differently. There are other instances reported as well.

I'm not 100% sure if we can use this yet, since it's not supported by
Python's gettext modules, so I need to fake out the gettext layer, but I
think it's possible. Would be good to know if it's worth putting in the
effort.

Regards,
Malcolm
