Correct the translation if the text contain \"

Microsoft "resources" files use case-insensitive insertion and case-sensitive 
lookup, so PO files that contain string keys differing only by case do not get 
inserted when calling MsgFmt.exe.

Attached is a patch to MsgFmt.exe that works around this limitation by 
prepending to each inserted string key a "prefix string", containing the offset 
of every char that differs from the LowerInvariant char, allowing string keys 
differing only by case to be inserted into the resources file without conflict.

The patch also provides an interface for apply prefixes to, and prefixes from, 
string keys.  To look up a string, Prefix.Apply is called to apply the prefix 
the string so that it will be found:

resourceManager.GetString(Gettext.Cs.Prefix.Apply(value));

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Have a .po with fuzzy strings
2. Use that .po for your translation

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect fuzzy strings not to be used.
I see that they are being used.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Gettext.Cs.dll, v2.0.50727 os Windows 7 (64 bit).

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Follow the steps as described in 
http://code.google.com/p/gettext-cs-utils/wiki/SampleConsoleProject
2. Try to use plural forms ( 
http://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/gnu/gettext/manual/html_node/Plural-forms.
html ) or contexts ( 
http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/Contexts.html )
3. It don't seem to be possible even if they are available in 
Lib\Gnu.Gettext\intl.cs

Working with 'gettext' in xaml

Cannot use Strings as ResourceType inside Metadata.

public class StudentMetadata
{
        [Display(Name = "lbl_name", ResourceType = typeof(Strings))]         
        [Required]
        public string Name{ get; set; }
}

Cannot retrieve property 'Name' because localization failed.  Type 'Strings' is 
not public or does not contain a public static string property with the name 
'lbl_name'.

Is there a way to make this dynamic instead of having to actually create a 
public static property for each translation item every time?

The strings in the example created translated with Poedit are:

msgid "The type of parameter \"${0}\" is not supported"
msgstr "Il tipo del parametro \"${0}\" non è supportato"

In this case the text inserted in the requestor is

"The type of parameter \"
"Il tipo del parametro \"

Resolved in the attached file

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Compile tip
2. Run Gettext.Samples.Spanish/Scripts/extract.bat

Expected result: Templates/Strings.pot containing single "Buenos días" message
Actual result: Templates/Strings.pot containing single "Buenos das" message

Please provide any additional information below.
The bundled version of gettext is very old (0.14,) replacing it with gettext 
0.17 fixes the issue.
