I would create a single project containing all the different locale
specific stuff and maintain that single project.  Then when you deploy
to the Market, just create a script that changes the package names so
you can upload them to the Market as seperate apps.  That's what I did
when I was maintaining the paid vs. free versions of my app.  The free
version was automatically generated from the paid version.
