But msgmerge (and by extension, intltool-update) removes the very
similar translation (one fuzzy is based on) instead of marking it
"obsolete".  So, such translations would be lost in the PO file you're
fetching from CVS, so it won't help.  Unless you're re-using the
translation from the tarball as well.

It's an excellent idea, but it has to be executed very carefully,
that's all I'm saying (generic GNU gettext utilities are not
sufficient AFAIK).

Cheers,
Danilo
