I don't know about Quixote idioms but I'm successfully using gettext
with PTL.  I'm only using one language per server so there is nothing
particular to do, I'm just calling gettext.install(...) in my main
module and using _("Hello world") in py/ptl files.

As for gettext files management (creating/merging .po files, compiling
them to .mo files), I am using this Makefile:
