translation with gettext would support this with comment using key-words
/ tags. Key words are configurable, maybe a convention has been set with
### as marker...

with gettext, it would be roughly something like
coding in file.cxx:
/* TRANSLATORS paper size (8.5" x 13" ) */
printf("Long Bond");
with xgettext --add-comments TRANSLATORS
the po-file for this language would then looks (after translation) like
#. paper size (8.5" x 13" )
#src: file.cxx 123
msgid "Long Bond"
msgstr "Oficio"
in crazy idea to go to gettext, when really time available : -)
