I delegate the answer to this question to Stefan...

Maybe we have to make one up. On
<http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2005-September/020513.html> I
found a reference that uses 0x48f as LCID for Esperanto.

That sounds funny indeed. I always prefer the verb "annotate" over "blame"
and I use annotate in the German translation.

Send them to me or to dev@tortoisesvn...

My French is good enough to be able to apply your patches and proofread
them.
