string incompletely extracted in the "builtins.1.po" and "bash.1.po" files

In the "builtins.1.po" and "bash.1.po" files, the string:

"The process of applying these completion specifications when word completion is attempted is described"

is incompletely extracted: when running the «LANG=fr_FR man bash» command, it is displayed as:

"Le processus d'application de ces sp�cifications de compl�tement, lorsqu'un compl�tement de mot est tent�, est d�crit above under Programmable Completion.";

the same (similar), by running the command "LANG=es_ES man bash":

"El proceso para aplicar estas especificaciones de autocompletado sobre las palabras se describe en above under Programmable Completion."

from which it can be deduced that the fragment:

"...above under Programmable Completion." is the missing link of this string.

NOTE: errors like this last one, I found it in several files; especially when the text in the original is divided into several lines, or, even more often, into paragraphs:

text string
empty newline
one or more lines containing an example
empty newline
continuation of the text string
