Maybe you're falling into a mistake I made some time ago. I was using
something like:
  gchar *g=N_("translatable string");
  printf("%s",g);
And I assumed that the N_ would do the translating. Back then Olivier
pointed out that the N_ would only generate the translation, but that 
  printf("%s",_(g));
was necessary to do the actual translation. Now it seems obvious, but
back then it didn't. 

hope this helps, if any,
