I filed https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11176 to find
out what is different with make distrib and make install and the
Chandler-en.po treatment. However, with the path issue fixed, I don't
think the Chandler-en.po treatment will be an issue anymore. So that
blocker should be gone from your point of view once you merge the trunk
to your branch.

I think there are two separate bugs here:

1) rt.py (or something it uses) doesn't set up sys.path correctly for localization to work.

2) The fact that running Python after a "make install" results in a sys.path that doesn't work for localization and running after a "make distrib" results in a different, but correct sys.path for localization. Running Python after a "make install" or "make distrib" should not affect Python's sys.path for localization, right?

Committing the fix for bug 1 will mask bug 2, on the tinderboxes but this doesn't mean that bug 2 is fixed. For example, running from Wing after a make install will still result in the incorrect localization, which makes it important to get fixed.
