bug#26247: Gettext introduces timestamps in .mo files

[Julien Lepiller]

It's interesting to see that only the generate po files are compiled to 
non-reproducible mo files. All other translations seem fine, right? Could it be 
related to the way these po files are created? It might introduce a timestamp 
at that point, but I can't check right now.
