-Bugs
-
-    Plural-forms field in MO header (translation for empty string,
-    i.e. "") is treated according to PHP syntactic rules (it's
-    eval()ed). Since these should actually follow C syntax, there are
-    some problems.

 
 

-    For instance, I'm used to using this:
-      Plural-Forms: nplurals=3;    plural=n%10==1 && n%100!=11 ? 0 : \
-         n%10>=2 && n%10<=4 && (n%100<10 || n%100>=20) ? 1 : 2;
-    but it fails with PHP (it sets $plural=2 instead of 0 for $n==1).
-
-    The fix is usually simple, but I'm lazy to go into the details of
-    PHP operator precedence, and maybe try to fix it. In here, I had
-    to put everything after the first ':' in parenthesis:
-      Plural-Forms: nplurals=3;    plural=n%10==1 && n%100!=11 ? 0 : \
-         (n%10>=2 && n%10<=4 && (n%100<10 || n%100>=20) ? 1 : 2);
-    That works, and I'm satisfied.
+Bugs

 
 

-    Besides this one, there are probably a bunch of other bugs, since
-    I hate PHP (did I mention it already? no? strange), and don't
-    know it very well. So, feel free to fix any of those and report
-    them back to me at <danilo@kvota.net>.
