Once we have the PO --> MO conversion be part of the "make" process, then we 
do not need to check them in anymore. However, I did not know enough about 
setup.py to add this functionality. Also, we need to get the Python msgfmt.py 
tool under a Zope-acceptable license.

Once this is done, there should be no more MO's in the repository.
