Hrmph. I know I tested with GETTEXT_POISON, but you are obviously right
that this doesn't pass. I must have botched something in one of my
rebase passes at the end.

Thanks for catching it, but...

I think we can do this much more simply, by just using i18ncmp:

diff --git a/t/t1506-rev-parse-diagnosis.sh b/t/t1506-rev-parse-diagnosis.sh
index c2b5125c12..62085a89e3 100755
--- a/t/t1506-rev-parse-diagnosis.sh
+++ b/t/t1506-rev-parse-diagnosis.sh

 	fatal: path '$2$3' $4, but not ${5:-$SQ$3$SQ}
 	hint: Did you mean '$1:$2$3'${2:+ aka $SQ$1:./$3$SQ}?
 	EOF
-	test_cmp expected error
+	test_i18ncmp expected error

 HASH_file=

(we'd still need the s/grep/test_i18ngrep/ in your second hunk).
