I can reproduce it reliably with a Pidgin repo:
mtn update --revision 00673aa20e125b6b2d904b2e1f31c6db51e63e3a --reallyquiet
mtn update --revision 570066b17b01473ab44d5ef95e4acd0ac6a8deb3 --reallyquiet
ls -l po/id.po
mtn update --revision b7add4f0aed4d53f564e4fde2227f70a42923e31 --reallyquiet
mtn update --revision 570066b17b01473ab44d5ef95e4acd0ac6a8deb3 --reallyquiet
ls -l po/id.po

AFAIK the Pidgin guys where able to reproduce this issue and even
found a workaround.
