Item10755: heading on the template login screen appears not to be localised

I've got my trunk.foswiki.org set to german, and while most of the login screen is in german, the big green heading is not

Log on with your username and password..

and the 'help'

=This is your name written as WikiWord, for example: JohnSmith. Register if you do not have an account yet.=

These seem to be fixed.

 grep Log\ on\ with\ your *
login.tmpl:%TMPL:DEF{"title"}%<h2>%MAKETEXT{"Log on with your username and password"}%</h2>%TMPL:END%
gac@cardinal: /var/www/foswiki/trunk/core/templates (release11)$ grep This\ is\ your\ name\ written *
login.tmpl:%TMPL:DEF{"authrealm"}%%MAKETEXT{"This is your name written as !WikiWord, for example: !JohnSmith. %BR% [[[_1]][Register]] if you do not have an account yet." args="%SYSTEMWEB%.UserRegistration"}%%TMPL:END%
gac@cardinal: /var/www/foswiki/trunk/core/templates (release11)$

These seem to date back to at least Oct. 2010.

Seems to be a bug in MAKETEXT maybe? Indeed on trunk, the above strings are in english. I've checked the de.po file, and translations exist. Something strange is going on.

This is what I get:

The headline is translated, but not the help text. The login tmpl uses MAKETEXT though and the string is in de.po.

It is quite a complex sentence:

This is your name written as !WikiWord, for example: !JohnSmith. %BR% [[[_1]][Register]] if you do not have an account yet.

Found it: it is the BR inside the MAKETEXT that screws up.
