translator_credits is a special string in gettext, I'm not sure that it can be replaced. Have a look at https://wiki.gnome.org/TranslationProject/LocalisationGuide for some more background information.
AFAIK it's not special per se, it's just used specially inside GNOME. I wonder if there's really a reason why it's not "translator-credits" indeed, because I fail to see any technical reason why this would be problematic and it would solve right away the confusion with accelerators (which is mentioned in the linked document as well).
This said, in our particular case this string is pointless, because it comes from an embedded library but that very string is never displayed, so it could even be dropped.
@Matthew, how would you feel about changing this to translator-credits or another way to prevent the issue at hand, given that IIUC anyway the library doesn't have an upstream anymore?

It seems in the GNOME po file i have "translator-credits" is mostly being used with a few "translator_credits" so maybe they have switched from _ to -.
