TRANSLATORS comments are not being extracted

Hi all.

I was about to suggest some "translators" comment to be added, when I
realized that it seems their are not being extracted from texi files
when generating .pot files.

In theory, po/doc/local.mk defines target "doc-pot-update' that runs
po4a-update which extract strings from the guix.texi and
contributing.texi files and store them in guix-manual.pot, which will
update all .po files in other make-target.

I notice at least one occurrence: "doc/guix.texi" in line 117 has a
comment that is clearly to be read by translators in the following.
See lines below:
-----------------------------
@c TRANSLATORS: You can replace the following paragraph with information on
@c how to join your own translation team and how to report issues with the
@c translation.

Guix}), German (@pxref{Top,,, guix.de, Referenzhandbuch zu GNU Guix}),

The guix-manual.pot is generated with the following string (please
notice the lack of comment):

#. type: Plain text
