This would be a bug in fr.po:

| #: cp/call.c:2834
| msgid "%s for `%T %s' operator"
| msgstr "%s pour l'opérateur «%T %s»"
|
| #: cp/call.c:2837
| msgid "%s for `%T [%T]' operator"
| msgstr "%s pour l'opérateur «%T [%T]»"
|
| #: cp/call.c:2842
| msgid "%s for `%T %s %T' operator"
| msgstr "%s pour l'opérateur «%t [%T]»"
|
| #: cp/call.c:2845
| msgid "%s for `%s %T' operator"
| msgstr "%s pour l'opérateur «%t [%T]»"

You will notice that the translations do not match the messages, and
that the escape sequences are wrong: in particular, a %t has
appeared.  This is not a defined %-escape, so we abort in the middle
of generating the error message, which triggers the "ré-entée" message.

Correct entries, presumably, would read

| #: cp/call.c:2834
| msgid "%s for `%T %s' operator"
| msgstr "%s pour l'opérateur «%T %s»"
|
| #: cp/call.c:2837
| msgid "%s for `%T [%T]' operator"
| msgstr "%s pour l'opérateur «%T [%T]»"
|
| #: cp/call.c:2842
| msgid "%s for `%T %s %T' operator"
| msgstr "%s pour l'opérateur «%T %s %T»"
|
| #: cp/call.c:2845
| msgid "%s for `%s %T' operator"
| msgstr "%s pour l'opérateur «%s %T»"

I am not sure what the protocol is for fixing such bugs.  The
corrections need to make it back to the translation project somehow,
and the .po files need to be audited for other occurrences of this
problem (why didn't msgfmt bitch?)
