What version of perl are you using?

3.2 definitely had some issues. I'd thought that 3.4 was better on this
point. Can you describe exactly where you're seeing this issue? (I can't
quite reproduce it)

What you should do is: 

	cd /opt/rt3/lib/RT/I18N/
	cp hu.po hu.po.orig
	Edit hu.po to add the new translations
	diff -u hu.po.orig hu.po > hu.po.patch
	Send email to rt-bugs at fsck.com with hu.po.patch.

	Thanks!
