What about \ in the message, do they need to be escaped as \\ ?

That's a good point. I took these two lines from js_map_format.py - it had this
bug as well. Fixed it too.

+        if id.startswith('IDR_'):
+          id = id[4:]
+
+        if len(out) > 1:
+          out.append(',\n')
+        out.append(format % (id, loc_message))
+
+    out.append('\n}\n')
+    return ''.join(out)
