About translations, looking again, I'd remove them.

First, it was never maintained.

Second, the core source tree does not look to be the correct place to
have them. And the inputs are not good to control the output (i.e.
someone get new/changed messages to create/update translations).

Translations (if one want to do it) should go to own repository.

Input for it must be the official firebird.msg, where things could be
extracted and managed in automated ways to know additions and updates.
