project-id misfeatured

Hi,

        * pt_BR.po, es.po: Remove the "GNU" from the project ID.  That
        stupid msginit uses a script project-id to retrieve a new project
        id.  Instead of using what it founds out, it tries to put "GNU"
        before the id if _any_ file in the current directory has a string
        "GNU <package_name>".  As address@hidden is build automagically this
        package name mangling breaks make distcheck as it tries to rebuild
        the po file with the "correct" name.  The upshot is never to use
        GNU in your po directory.

It took my quite some time to figure out what was going on here while
doing a GnuPG release.  Please get rid of this misfeatures.


Shalom-Salam,

   Werner
