Which use do you have for this redirected diff output?  If you only want
to read it in the terminal, you can read it correctly with cat or "less
-r".  If you tell me about a use you make which can't bear color control
chars, I'll add a --no-color option to check_translation.py and a make
variable to be able to use it through make.
