msgctxt was added for avoiding the use of "Prefs Section^". In gettext
catalogs that have msgctxt two entries are different if they have a
different string in msgid (like catalogs without msgctxt) or if the
strings in the msgid are equal then are different if they have
different strings in their respective msgctxt.
So, since we have two strings "General" and there are two contexts,
then we should have to diferentiate them, using the "Prefs Section^"
dirty trick or the msgctxt label, a label that was added to Gettext
precisely for this situation.
