We really appreciate the work of the TP project, and anything
we can do do make that job easier would be our pleasure.

I've just committed this changed.

commit 046983e9a73da6c190e0040d9a1b2c6358ea26fc
Author: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>

    Rename header.pot to pot.header.
    
    The Translation Project has asked us to rename the
    pot header file `header.pot' to something else. Their
    scripts automatically look for pot files and the
    file `header.pot' is not actually a pot file but a
    header that we use when regenerating `libc.pot.'
    This commit renames `header.pot' to `pot.header' to
    avoid causing errors or complicating the TP project
    scripts.

Cheers,
Carlos.
