Bug Description

When I enter a string include ' \" '(e.g.
'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa\"bbbbbbb\"cccccccc' ) in form and
save it, I may get an invaled po by download.

I think this may caused by wrong cutof(?) point.

When we download a po file from launchpad.net, if the string
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa\"bbbbbbb\"cccccccc
becomes to
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
aaaa\"bbbbbbb\"cccccccc
, everything is fine .

But it is possible to become to
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa\
"bbbbbbb\"cccccccc
, and we will get a wrong po file.

you can simply keyin both
\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"............(a lot of)..\"\"
and
"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\............(a lot of).."\"\
in any translation page,
than save it and download the po.

When
$ msgfmt -v -o /dev/null that_output.po
, we always get the parse error message(s).
