[Gimp-docs] msgmerge compendium feature

Hi,

I have changed the Makefile.GNU to use the compendium feature of the 
msgmerge program.

When updating a po file, e.g. with

	make -f Makefile.GNU --assume-new=pot/foo/bar/baz.pot \
	po/xx/foo/bar/baz.po

the new code will look for files named "Compendium.po" (capital "C") in 
po/xx/foo/bar, po/xx/foo, and /po/xx. These compendium files should 
contain common translations to be used as defaults.

For now the compendium files have to be maintained manually (without a 
common pot file). Have a look at my sample files 
po/de/menus/Compendium.po and po/de/menus/colors/Compendium.po.

If you have any problems, you can disable this feature with

	make  -f Makefile.GNU ... COMPENDIUM=""

If there are no problems, I'll change Makefile.am too.

Bye,
Ulf
