Update of bug #46756 (project gettext):
Status: None => Confirmed

Follow-up Comment #1:
Yes, this is certainly a regression and the character escapes should be
converted before concatenating adjacent strings.
However, it is not straightforward to fix this, now that the \u escape is
introduced. I guess it would be ideally fixed by consolidating encoding
conversion stuff (currently in xgettext.c) into character escape handling
(x-c.c) and do that before string concatenation.
In any case, an easy work around is to use octal escapes.
