      <command>ocaml-xgettext</command> is a <command>camlp4</command> top level. This top level is compiled with the 
      printer module <filename>pr_gettext.cmo</filename>. It outputs an OCaml marshalled data structure that can only
      be understood by <command>ocaml-gettext</command>. The purpose of this program is to be a back end for OCaml source
      code string extraction. You should not use it directly.
