Make sure that the texi2html is being called with the right
arguments.  I think the relevant command is in make/doc-i8n-*.
I remember spending ages trying to fix some problem with the
translation before I discovered the make/ dir, although I can't
remember if I actually *finished* fixing that problem nor not.

I'm surprised that you have this problem with filenames, though,
since I'm pretty certain it was working a few days ago.  You *are*
using texi2html 1.82 and not cvs, right?  And you did a make
distclean and make doc-clean and stuff?

Yeah, that's #845, marked High priority, so that'll stop 2.14.

those shouldn't be translated, of course.

Dunno.  Believe me, I never put anything in the translations.
