I cannot make sense of this change other than when malformed input files
are concerned. Your example "^#~" requires msgstr == None == msgid as
per the return of parse_translation(). That, then, means that comments
evaluates to true (has entries) for the break in line 153 not to trigger.

Can you give to input files (URl/revisions) that trigger this? So far
this is my best guess:

#SOMETHING
#~ msgid "some msgid"
#~ msgstr "some msgstr"

I agree that msgstr == None should not be iterated, however I don't see
how we get to this case.
