I've fixed some of them.  Others (like "Swiss German") do not occur in the 
file (at least not on my Debian system).

Right, I did not know about it.  I've changed LE to make use of the ISO 
package and use translations from there where possible. However, for 
languages not in ISO-639, the code continues to use LE's po file. If you look 
at https://gnunet.org/svn/Extractor/src/plugins/wordleaker/wordextractor.cc
you can see that I used a new macro "__" (two underscores) for ISO-639 
lookups, and the traditional "_" (one underscore) for LE PO file lookups.  I 
hope this helps.

Very ;-).  Please let me know if I missed something or could do something 
better.  I've attached the updated libextractor.pot file (from subversion) so 
that you can see what happened.

Cheers!
