Comment (by bjoernv):

 Intltool (and especially xgettext from gettext) can can not use the C
 preprocessor. Therefore something like

 _("<span weight='bold' size='larger'>Welcome to " PIDGIN_NAME "...")

 does not work. If the macro PIDGIN_NAME is important, we should use a
 sprintf-like function, e.g.:

 text= g_strdup_printf(_("<span weight='bold' size='larger'>Welcome to %s
 ..."), PIDGIN_NAME);
