I think we need it!

I also had a quite similar issue:
I translated some man pages in the DDP, and had to change all the paths
when I made a patch for the debian package.

Having a sort of variable substitution ($EN_DIR, $FR_DIR) would have saved
me a couple of vim commands.

Do you think this could be done?


(Note: I've got one comment on your patch:
Using "'%s' redeclared" would save one string in the po4a's translation;)
