    Yikes.  I think we should patch po4a not to wrap <pre> in msgid's,
    similar to the suggested approach with <script>.

Fortunately, Po4a developers had listened to our comments and the
recently released Po4a 0.33 addresses this problem by introducing new
command-line options for the XML module.  I suggest switching to Po4a
0.33 and applying the following patch.

(Please be extra careful when installing Po4a 0.33 as superuser, as it
installs files outside the default PREFIX ("/usr/local").  Over 126
files had been installed in /usr/share on my system, which I had to move
manually (well, by casting some Emacs spells) to /usr/local/share where
they belong (well, not exactly, since I manage my /usr/local tree using
GNU stow).  This bug is not addressed yet, so I recommend installing
Po4a 0.33 as a normal user for now.)
