Could this perhaps be because of the delayed run of migrate_current_flag script?

Some information on how to reproduce this issue, or some live examples of the issue would be very helpful.

ISTM that the only way this could happen would be if the translation-credits message had the TranslationCreditsType.NOT_CREDITS type.

This bug appears to occur only when the user viewing the POFile does not have write permissions on it. This is because the template is given responsibility for selecting the correct text, and it does not do it correctly in the version for users without write permissions.
