[patch] Fwd: subversion: Tiny French translation error

I received the following from a Debian user.  I believe he is correct,
but my French is very poor so I don't really know.

Peter


From: Cyril Brulebois

Hi, a tiny error spotted in the French translation, where two French
terms[1,2] can be chosen, depending on the context.

 1. http://www.wordreference.com/fren/acception
 2. http://www.wordreference.com/fren/acceptation

The first is the current one, but isn't suitable. As you can see in the
other translations, the second is used, which is the one to use here.

According to French typographic rules, there should be an unbreakable space:

- before the following signs  ! ? : ;
- after opening quotes
- before closing quotes

Unfortunately, the unbreakable space is not supported in all 
shells/fonts/whatever so we decided to use full spaces instead for the 
translation.

I didn't know that it was typical in French to leave a space before a
question mark, but I see this style used all throughout the fr.po
translation.
