i think, the pd-core should be blissfully unaware of all translations.
all the interface is done via the GUI, so everything that is 
"presentational" should be handled exclusively via the GUI (based on 
information it get's from the core).

if you want to run Pd without GUI and still have translations available 
(e.g. of the File-Menu :-)), they could run the output of Pd through a 
filter that uses the po files to translate.

but the DSP-core should not be bothered by those things.
