The problem seems to be in the optimization to recognize when PO files need to be re-exported: updated template doesn't trigger export of all PO files. In general, this is not a big issue for proper gettext handling applications because missing messages from PO files are considered untranslated anyway (and since there were no updates on these PO files, since the POT messages are new they are still untranslated).

In general, I suggest you normalize PO files against the POT file using msgmerge during the build process if you depend on PO file being complete ("msgmerge -U chromium_strings/fi.po chromium_strings/chromium_strings.pot"): that is recommended anyway (even when we fix this bug, it will make your build process much less fragile and actually dependent only on your POT file being correct).
