These points should be fixed.

I received and answered a list of unclear contexts (like "PAR").

Does gettext provide a feature to automatically extract comments for 
translatable strings in C++ sources? I did add this feature for XML 
level files. But for C++ sources I found no way to add comments. Just 
translators can add comments to the individual po-files.

The Hungarian translation I received today is the most up to date one of 
all languages - it even translates the first levels! I'll commit it at 
the weekend.
