The plural_table in gettext-tools/src/plural-table.c is missing plural-form formulas for some of the major languages of the world. Consequently, msginit is unable to prefill .po files with the proper formula.

I picked these languages from a list of top-10 most spoken languages in the world; they are not in any particular order, and they surely aren't the only languages worth adding to the table.
