Thanks for the report. I did a little searching and it seems "cumulate" is actually a real verb, though I agree the verb "accumulate" is much more widely used (and also seems closer the computer term "accumulator"). It seems current gettext-0.18.1.1 still uses "cumulate" so I will ask the upstream maintainers about it, and see what they say. I don't we will fix this for RHEL5 though, so I am moving your report over to Fedora, so that it might get into a future RHEL release. :) Thanks Jens. "Cumulate" isn't a verb we'd use in British English, as you mentioned man page readers should be familiar with accumlate though. Thanks for redirecting this to the right place.
