gettext support for PAM modules?

[Baris Metin]

Hello,

I'm wondering if it is suitable to a add gettext support to pam modules?

We[1] are developing a GNU/Linux distribution and we need a full localization
support. I haven't seen any discussion on this topic before. What do you
think?

I added already gettext support to my own written modules (which are
not part of Linux-PAM). I think it is suitable, at least for the
modules dealing with password changes.

Technical it is pretty simple to add it, it is only a lot of work.

If the maintainers of the modules can accept I can do the dirty work.
I'm going to work on the cvs code if it's the right way.

I think we can accept that. :-) However I'd like to see it included
after the 0.78 release.
