This can be a good idea. On the other hand, I think translators are
cautious to not forget the final LF since there is a lot of them from C
source. Also I think msgfmt checks if English source and translation
both end with newline or not. So if a translator forgets to put a \n
then msgfmt would return an error. If it is not the translator to find
the error herself, someone else will, like the Translation coordinator.
I will leave this patch as is.
