Thanks for the report. I've fixed the bug, and added a test like yours.

(file #16350)

I discovered that when using msgmerge with the -s option and with old translation (lines starting with '#~') at the end, then the POT-Creation-Date is updated event if nothing if modified.

I wrote a small test script that is a variation around the msgmerge-update-3 to illustrate this.
Note that removing the "-s" option to the msgmerge call
OR removing the last three lines in the test po file make
this text succeed. (Removing both also succeed, however this is the plain msgmerge-update-3 test)

My msgmerge comes from the last available Debian package.

vdanjean@eyak:/tmp$ msgmerge --version
msgmerge (GNU gettext-tools) 0.17
