Are you sure you're not English?  You seem to have their knack for

Good suggestion.  The gist is that the _REMOTE files need a rule to
copy them into place, and the _LOCAL files don't.  I'll add comments
to that effect.  The alternative is going down the path of the kernel
Makefile.rules, which seemed overkill.

I modeled it on the already-existing uxlib.src, which was uncommented,
even after Jim's initial pass to CDDL everything.  Since we don't post
process these files in the _msg build, I would actually need to check
with the g11n folks to see how they use these.

Please speak up if you think that would be worthwhile.  Either way,
thank you for the review.
