Thanks, Patrick, for this the last one seems to work - i.e., so far, so
good (basically I have some HomePage's and some Accueil's and likely others.
The second to last - the redirect - also worked, but from
ML-L10n.ML-L10n.php (didn't see the ML-L10n.HomePage.php at all). It was
clunky however, with a one-second display of two error messages before
loading the redirect page (I screenshot the messages, but then went on to
the last suggestion).
THe other suggestion did not work for me.
Anyway, this is helpful and keeps us with a predictable model that clicking
on the logo (in these cases, flags) takes you to the HomePage in whatever
working language. (Well, almost whatever language, but let me get the simple
ones done first)

Nope. PmWiki doesn't load per-group or per-page configurations
until after it's resolved the pagename. So, by the time the
wikigroup configuration is loaded, PmWiki has already decided
on the correct pagename.
Also, there is no $Name global variable to set (at least,
PmWiki doesn't use one). There is the {$Name} page variable,
which returns the name (sans any group) of some page, but
there's not a corresponding PHP variable.
For what you're wanting to do, I suspect you want to set
the $DefaultName variable, and this should be done relatively
early in the config.php. If you're wanting to change $DefaultName
only for a particular group, you'll probably need to do something
like...:
if (preg_match('!^NG-L10n[./]!', $pagename))
$DefaultName = 'Accueil';
Another option is to simply put a redirect on the HomePage
that goes to the desired page -- i.e., in local/NG-L10n.HomePage.php,
put:
<?php
Redirect('NG-L10n.Accueil');

It's possible to change the default page on a site-wide basis,
but there's not really an easy way to do it only for certain
groups.
Although, come to think of it, another useful possibility would
be to modify PmWiki's page search order, by doing something like:
$PagePathFmt = array(
'{$Group}.$1', '$1.$1', '$1.Accueil', '$1.{$DefaultName}');
Then, when PmWiki is given only a partial page name (such as 'NG-L10n'),
it will look for both *.Accueil and *.HomePage and
use whichever one it finds. Again, this setting won't work
in a per-group customization (because PmWiki has to figure out
the full group and page name in order to know which customizations
to load), so it has to be done in local/config.php. Ideally it
should be near the very beginning of local/config.php .
