A similar issue exists with Spanish 'es' and Hebrew 'he'. I'm not sure
how serious this is since the only non-ascii in the file is in
comments and string literals. In fact, several other translations drop
the "coding" line entirely. I don't understand how this would render
the file "unparseable" when used as input to python or config_list.

However, it is incorrect to translate "coding" to another language, so
I will fix these three.

Note also that there is a problem with the patch. There should be no
space between 'coding' and the following colon.
