Hi Marcos,

After a closer look at parser.cc, strings enclosed with YY_ belong to
bison-runtime gettext domain, so these strings are not to be translated
in lilypond domain.

If we want these messages to be translated in GUB binaries, we should
build/copy in GUB compiled message catalogs for this domain
(bison-runtime.mo files) -- it's a pity that I haven't been able to set
up GUB yet :-(

As for LilyPond messages, I'll a send a new lilypond.pot to the
Translation Project soon, so as to give translators 2 or 3 weeks to
update the PO file for inclusion in 2.12 release.

Cheers,
John
