I've begun working on it (with the temporary name "Common").

While moving common parts of the scripts to this module, I've found an 
undocumented option in the po4a script: split. What does it do? It adds a big 
amount of code. Should it be documented or is it there just for testing?

hmm, I'm now thinking on posponing these big moves and concentrating in the 
gcc-like syntax/wrapping stuff.
