In kig.po there are some recently added terms concerning Bézier curves. More 
precisely, "Quadric" and "Cubic" Bézier curves are mentioned. I think the word 
"Quadric" is an error and should be "Quadratic" instead, as you can see in 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%A9zier_curve#Examination_of_cases.

A "quadric" is a far more general mathematical object, namely an hypersurface 
defined as the loci of zeros of a quadratic polynomial. Nothing closely related 
to Bézier curves.

Orestes.
