Likewise, I'm not sure that one can reliably rot13 an output for
test_i18ncmp. It could contain mixed translated and untranslated bits
from different messages.

As long as <rot13>...</rot13> marking can be trusted (and it cannot
be, but if we declare it is OK to punt, then by definition we can),
I think the messages can be compared.

Good point. I should have looked at the implementation more carefully
before responding (and I agree that while not foolproof, tagging like
that would work OK in practice).
