I cannot confirm the bug with 1.4.0-dev, rev. 7012. I'm using a German 
WindowsXP, Prof, SP2.
You might want to try a nightly 1.4.0-dev build but take care: the working 
copy format will be silently updated to a new format and cannot be read by 
a 1.3.x client.
I saved the two files in an empty directory, opened TMerge and applied the 
diff to the empty directory. The time stamp of the .po file changed but was 
binary identical to the original file.
Does it also work for you if you place the files outside of your working 
copy and apply the patch there? If not, where can I checkout the directory 
containing the po file?
