It looks like
  - either xgettext crashed,
  - or xgettext succeeded without a diagnostic (unlikely),
  - or some environment variable caused the message "unknown; will try C"
    to appear in a different language.

Trying to reproduce the third case:
  $ LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8 make check
  => bingo

For debugging such cases, it is useful to add a command
  $ env | LC_ALL=C sort
to the execution, so I could have looked through the set of defined environment
variables.

Fixed through

Thanks for the report.
