The templating is done with M4, so that should be possible. I'd suggest
it'd be worth getting two languages in there and then extracting the
stuff in common into templates.

Good point. I'd say go with l10n. I'm not sure where I got
"translations" from :)

Currently we have a couple of shell scripts in debian/ to do similar
things. There's no reason we couldn't put them into the rules files
though.

Thanks for those comments, they're quite worthwhile.
