Take a look at http://gettext-lint.sf.net
It includes POFileSpell that does just that:
http://gettext-lint.sourceforge.net/POFileSpell.html

For sample usage see http://kde-pt.homelinux.org/status-HEAD.html
Search for "ortografia" (spelling in pt); "resumo" means overview.
The HTML reports are generated by an XSLT included in gettext-lint.
