I've replied to Bruno's mail:

...[T]hat's probably because I used -C in a different way than originally
intended, namely to merge new translations that are made in the master branch
of a project into an older version (using SCMs to merge PO files is rather
unpleasant). In this case, I'd rather have the non-fuzzy translation for the
same msgid from the compendium file (which really is the same file, just from
the up-to-date master branch) than the fuzzy translation in the older branch.
...
Would you accept a patch which lets users specify that msgmerge should prefer
the compendium file (maybe using a different term than "compendium")? Perhaps
rather using mostly the same code, but having a "--update-file" option which
acts like "-C" except for the differences I described?
