I am getting incorrect complaints over quotes with 0.40.6.  The problem
is not new with that version.  There are two problems here.

1. tools/win32/jhbuildrc.py is in POTFILES.skip and really should be ignored.
    Alternatively there should be an option to exclude parts of the tree.
2. There is nothing wrong with line 97 in there.  The tripple quotes combined
    with line continuation seems to confuse intltool-update.
