So the .mo files get installed 'near' the gettext runtime dll
(/usr/share/locale?) and not necessarily within the Subversion install
area...I did not realize that, but I see now that there are a bunch of
things in my gettext's "share\locale\ca\LC_MESSAGES" etc. The default
SVN_LOCALE_DIR would be "/usr/share/locale" on a unix machine?

There are no issues or objections to calculating the SVN_LOCALE_DIR on
Windows based on the location of the gettext runtime dll
(gettextpo.dll)? This is easy to do, I just want to make sure it's what
is desired.

Thanks! (Ben, too, for the PACKAGE_NAME pointer)
