It appears that multi-line descriptions in *.opt files are not picked up
correctly. As an example, in config/bfin/bfin.opt there are these lines:
mleaf-id-shared-library
Target Report Mask(LEAF_ID_SHARED_LIBRARY)
Generate code that won't be linked against any other ID shared libraries,
but may be used as a shared library.
po/gcc.pot however, contains this:
#: config/bfin/bfin.opt:52
msgid ""
"Generate code that won't be linked against any other ID shared libraries,"
msgstr ""
That is, the second line of the description is missing. (Or alternatively, it
is a bug in bfin.opt that more than one is used for the description. I haven't
investigated what the defined format for these files are.)
