 Yes, "\ " are changed to 0xA0. Maybe this should be done
only if the
 charset used support this character (at least UTF-8 & latin-1).
 However, I'm surprised it generate an error. I'm only getting warnings
 (sometimes annoying):
 warning: The following msgid contains non-ASCII characters.
          This will cause problems to translators who use a character
 encoding different from yours. Consider using a pure ASCII msgid instead.
 (There is no warning when the charset is UTF-8) 
Somebody from the Italian translators's ml told me that newer versions of 
gettext have support for UTF-8 msgids. Although I haven't found any 
documentation for this feature, I've seen it used within Gnome programs.
For instance, the Nautilus sources contain something like
    "copyright", _("Copyright \xC2\xA9 1999-2005 The Nautilus
authors"),
and the POT file is marked with charset="UTF-8" and contains the © character.
