The attached patch adds a --rnrs flag to control the standard used by xgettext.  Both --rnrs 6 and --rnrs 7 enable the feature requested, but it isn't enabled by default as Guile reader follows R5RS when the default configuration is used.

(file #50540)

Line continuations are described in section 6.7 of the Revised7 Report on the Algorithmic Language
Scheme (R7RS, https://small.r7rs.org/attachment/r7rs.pdf):


A line ending which is preceded by \<intraline whitespace> expands to nothing (along with any trailing intraline whitespace), and can be used to indent strings for improved legibility.

Examples:
[...]
"Here’s text \
   containing just one line"


Here is a test Scheme source file "multiline_test.scm":

(i18n "Here’s text \
       containing just one line")


Using Gettext 0.21 to run the command,

xgettext --from-code=UTF-8 --language=Scheme --keyword=id:i18n ./multiline_test.scm

the result file "messages.po" contains the message:

#: multiline_test.scm:1
msgid "Here’s text        containing just one line"
msgstr ""


The msgid contains too many whitespaces and should be instead:

msgid "Here’s text containing just one line"
