The patch still updates a bunch of .po files. Those are normally
refreshed with the translation updates, so they had better be removed.
Other than that, the patch looks in good shape to me so switch to
"Ready for committer".

So, to sum up things on this thread, here are the votes about the use
of aliases or a pure breakage:
- No to aliases, shake the world: Stephen, Tom, David F, Vik, Bruce M => 5
- Yes to aliases: Michael P, Andres, Peter E., Cynthia S, Jim N,
Vladimir, Simon R, Fujii-san => 8
If I misunderstood things, please feel free to speak up.
