To me, this commit message is not really related to the diff, which
essentially only adds a code comment and then has the only functional
change that _prevents_ `POFILES` and `MOFILES` from being set to empty
values when `NO_MSGFMT` is set.

I am therefore quite puzzled how that diff is supposed to achieve anything
that is described in the commit message (how does this "make git recognize
that"?).

Could you maybe clarify that?

Thanks,
Dscho
