Linux is not the only thing to think of by stating /usr/share/locale. :P
I guess ${PREFIX}/share/locale would be better. But still, for .mo files I
seriously do not see a problem if they're within an egg or something
similar. Imagine also the possibility of providing specific language
translations for a project as an egg (kind of like a plugin).
