Well, I added "--enable-all-translations-in-one-xml" as a workaround,
bypassing some make directives...
I think it can be something related to Nix itself, but I will investigate later.

I am fighting against other bugs, too - now in 'caja', the file
manager. But I will post about them today at night.
