Mmm, sorry to bother again: in the case of XTerm for instance, there are
several files: XTerm, XTerm-color (that #includes XTerm), and UXterm
(that #includes XTerm-color)

I guess it would be preferable to localized messages in one file only,
so would the following be fine?

fr/app-defaults/XTerm.msg contains translations:

*foo*label: Foo
*bar*label: Bar
...

fr/app-defaults/XTerm includes main XTerm file and translations:

#include "../../app-defaults/XTerm"
#include "XTerm.msg"

fr/app-defaults/XTerm-color includes main XTerm-color and translations:

#include "../../app-defaults/XTerm-color"
#include "XTerm.msg"

fr/app-defaults/UXterm includes main UXTerm and translations:

#include "../../app-defaults/UXTerm"
#include "XTerm.msg"
