This appears to be an export bug when translation forms are missing: out of the 3 forms this translation uses, if form 2 is not translated, it is not included in the export. For an untranslated message, 2 rather than 3 empty msgstrs are generated.

This is probably something to do with how the exporter finds out how many forms to export: it looks as if it exports up to and including the highest translated form, and in the problem cases, picks a bad default number of forms (either when there is no highest translated form, or when it's <2, or when it's below the language's highest form; I can't say from this example).
