I don't like the whole idea of having localized error messages.
People have to use English when programming PHP anyway, and nobody
is insane enough (yet) to suggest to translate function names. I
don't think "Parse error" is any more difficult to understand than
register_shutdown_function(). People use manual for understanding
things like this.

And I do care about unnecessary performance loss. But most of all I
care about maintenance nightmare that this localization would put us
in. If some of the pro-localization ever bother to read the php-bugs
you would know that even a simple matter of using the correct .ini
or .dll file can be too much for your target audience. Adding some
CDB file to it is not going to help. The other side is maintaining
the translation in the PHP code itself. This is just too large a
task for the current team.

I think it would be far more useful that some energy is spent on
keeping PHP manual up to date so say our Italian users would have
some clue about streams once PHP 4.3.0 hits the street.
