My notion was bad :(.
I lived with idea, that stuff under local/ (including po) overwrites
things from pure RT code.
I looked at RT::I18N::Init and things make more sense now. :)
Thanks for the right direction Ruslan!

Should be scripts rt-message-catalog and extract-message-catalog kept
separate for some reason? Solving the above problem you described needs
probably addition some option switches controlling processing in both
scripts.

Thanks for your time.
