Update.

1999-04-15  Ulrich Drepper  <drepper@cygnus.com>

	* catgets/gencat.c (read_input_file): Don't drop white spaces
	between number/identifier and string.
	Patch by Dima Barsky <dima@pwd.hp.com>.
	If no white space at all follows number/identifier remove existing
	message with the number/ientifier.
