I hope I covered all existing use cases that should continue to be
live:
 - make po-update and po-replace work from top-level
 - make -C Documentation/po/ po-update does *something*

However I'm pretty sure that many translations in the latter are dead:
As far as I understand we don't translate the docs by putting the
strings in Documentation/po, but rather by copying the files and
translating them below Documentation/lang. Still, translations for the
footer in HTML pages appear to be used (like "Other languages:" and
"About automatic language selection"). Whoever is interested in
improving this situation is more than welcome!
