Checked in git master, also in msgen.texi


$ git grep -n -e msgcat -- gettext-tools/doc/msgmerge.texi gettext-tools/doc/msgen.texi
gettext-tools/doc/msgen.texi:72:@opindex --lang@r{, @code{msgcat} option}
gettext-tools/doc/msgmerge.texi:159:@opindex --lang@r{, @code{msgcat} option}

The documentation (texinfo and man page) of the --lang option for msgmerge and msgcat says

@item --lang=@var{catalogname}

and

--lang=CATALOGNAME

But the argument is not a catalog name, but a language name.

Also, the texinfo source for the msgmerge option appears to have been copied from msgcat and use the wrong index entry:

@opindex --lang@r{, @code{msgcat} option}

I haven't checked whether there are more instances of these issues.
