I actually looked into fdisk sources already this morning, and it *does* 
call catgets, although very inconsistently. the CMD.C file is 
translation-ready, but other files seem not.

This would mean that one would need to replace all printf() and puts() 
calls by CATS equivalents, and then build the 'original' translation 
file based on source files (using some cat/grep magic to extract catgets 
arguments).

An additional note: v1.3.1 is buggy on VirtualBox, which might be a 
symptom of a more serious problem, while v1.2.1 is working fine on both 
real hardware and vbox. Not sure it makes sense to invest time in 
translating it, if no further development will be done on it, and users 
will have to use the older version anyway...
