Just for the records: Using "_" as the function name for gettext() has
two possibly negative effects: The function will be globally visible
which is a not so obvious side effect. I can't remember where this is
documented but I think the exact rule is that symbols the names of which
consist of one single non-alphanumeric characters are always global.
Furthermore - as far as I remember - the underscore is the candidate for
the concatenation operator (replaces the dot) in the future Perl 6.
For both reasons, I have decided to use a double underscore as a
shorthand to gettext() in libintl-perl.
