I've just commited an initial version of the new Common module, and it has 
basic implementations of wrapping functions:

wrap_mod("po4a:man", "this is a long....") returns:
po4a::man: this is a long message this is a long message this is a long
            message this is a long message this is a long message this is a
            long message this is a long message this is a long message

wrap_ref_mod("document.sgml:34", "po4a::man", "this is a long...") returns:
document.sgml:34: (po4a::man)
                this is a long message this is a long message this is a long
                message this is a long message this is a long message this is
                a long message this is a long message this is a long message

I've expanded the maximum length of the space to 15 characters (10 was 
shorter than "po4a::man: " ;)

Tomorrow I'll try to integrate this stuff with the other modules.
