Django: gettext raises ValueError: 'plural for

Question

If a auto generated django.po file contains the following line in its header

"Plural-Forms: nplurals=INTEGER; plural=EXPRESSION;\n"

"manage.py runserver" raises

gettext.py", line 93, in c2py
raise ValueError, 'plural forms expression could be dangerous'
ValueError: plural forms expression could be dangerous

If i remove the line everything works. What does the header mean? Why is it somtimes generated (for example localisation of the haystack app)? What das the error message mean?

It means that your translator forgot to fill it in properly.
