A bit out of date!

I managed to remove allmost all the language dependant menu files,
and most of the port dependant message files - this removes a lot
of replicated work and problems with the translated versions getting
out of date.

So you only need to look at src/distrib/utils/sysinst/msg.*.en
and src/distrib/utils/sysinst/arch/*/msg.*.en.

To build add 'se' to the LANGUAGES list in the Makefile (arch or 
Makefile.inc) and an file sysinstmsgs.se will be generated in $OBJ.
You can run '$OBJ/sysinst -D' to test it (in wheel but not root).

Have fun...
