Comment (by ryan):

 Any native support we build in should fallback to the current pomo setup
 if the desired locale is not fully supported. The presence of the gettext
 extension does not mean that any given locale can be served.  Type "locale
 -a" on your Mac OS or Linux box and see which ones you have. Some hosts
 install very few locales, often just C, POSIX, and en_US*. Different
 environments can have different names for the same locale. Also, the
 directory structure required by gettext is not compatible with what we use
 now.
