I think you mean in the PO and not in the POT (T = Template) file.
If you look at zh_TW they also translate:
procedure name = MAIN__
into
çåå = MAIN__
However, I'm not sure whether it is really a bug. For me, the English
output is clearer, but for some users it might be different.
Thus I don't see a reason for me to look into it - other things in
gfortran (and real life) are more important for me.

I'm not 100% sure if there is an extremely odd shell which handles this
differently, but assuming that /bin/sh is more-or-less standard-adhering
POSIX shell, it should work.
Besides, the same is also used in libstdc++-v3/scripts/extract_symvers.
