When smarty-gettext is used with smarty 3.1, the rendered page will contain several repetitions of the .po file header of the language that is used for translation.
The issue gets fixed by not translating empty strings. A patch is attached. This is a duplicate of Sourceforge issue #3460876.
this is fixed in this fork https://github.com/glensc/smarty-gettext
