That’s a similar bug, this time in the ‘guix’ gettext domain.  Julien?

Should we have a “TRANSLATORS” command somewhere explaining that Texinfo
command names (like @example) must not be translated?

More importantly, should we have a tool on our side to validate all the
Texinfo strings that appear in .po files?  I’m not entirely sure how to
do that.
