Problem with gettext

Hi,

This is probably something for help-gnu-utils, but I had a look at the
archives and it looked no more than a pool of spam :(

gettext is choking on my gnupg translation.

msgid ""
"You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for user:\n"
"\"%.*s\"\n"
"%u-bit %s key, ID %08lX, created %s%s\n"
msgstr ""
"Necessiteu la contrasenya per desbloquejar la clau secreta de l'usuari:\n"
"«%1$.*s»\n"
"clau %3$s de %2$u bits, ID %4$08lX, creada en %5$s%6$s\n"


Similar strings work, but for this one, msgfmt errors out:
ca.po:2719: 'msgstr' is not a valid C format string, unlike 'msgid'

The difference between the other and this one is the first string:
%.*s, which isn't present in the other ones.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Jordi
