Thanks a lot for the heads-up! I'm not following Emacs development, therefore
without your note I would not have known about it until Emacs 29 is released
and someone complains.
I've verified that the variable font-lock-constant-face exists at least since
2005, and since the PO mode assumes Emacs 22 or newer (released in 2007 or
newer), this replacement will be OK.
Applied.
