I think that using TeX (instead of LaTeX) is really an outdated approach for printing bbdb records. Modern LaTeX has lots of fancy packages to support, for example, language-specific stuff. Therefore, a re-write of bbdb-print should provide a way to exploit these LaTeX features effectively (instead of reinventing the wheel by defining \today for different languages / different tastes). Also, it should be possible to include bbdb records in LaTeX documents using something like \begin{bbdbrecord} ... \end{bbdbrecord} with a (customizable) LaTeX environment bbdbrecord that knows how to print a bbdb record.
