LaTeX complained about misconstructed UTF-8 entities in the french
translation. This was due to a mixture of Latin-1 and UTF-8-encoding.
Apparently, most files are encoded in Latin-1, but fr.po is (in its
translation part) UTF-8. po4a then mixed Latin-1 with UTF-8 into one
file, so no matter how further processing went, something would go
wrong.
I have changed po4a.cfg to define local files as latin-1, too. The
generated file is now entirely Latin-1 and not mixed.
Further down the road, the debiandoc2<latex-stuff> scripts need to
know that the files are Latin-1, not UTF. I have changed the mapping
in the Makefile for that.
Since changes in the po4a configuration file invalidate all derived
documents, I added it to the prerequisites.
Migration to UTF-8 would be a more perfect solution from my point of
view, but I would take that on only after migration to DocBook.

Thanks, without evidence there is actually a bug here (that should have
been caught some time ago by one of Lucas' archive rebuild anyway), I'm
hereby closing it. Do not hesitate to reopen it with actual information
if I'm mistaken here.
