I doubt it. In particular, I doubt that we'll be any more
internationalized than we are now, barring major contributions.

This sounds like a good first step to me. It will force us to start
dealing with the kinds of options you mentioned above.
I would welcome a patch to make this the default, so long as it
includes all the right autoconf magic so that if NLS is not supported
on the host system (because libraries are not present), that it is not
then activated. And you have to find a way to deal with cross
compilers as well, I guess. Hmm.
