i dont think we want localized comments/output without an english equivalent.  
i.e. if someone proposed an optional gettext() kind of thing so the output of 
u-boot were localized, that may make sense.

mixing language comments makes it kind of hard for people to coordinate/review 
things as then they'd be required to know multiple languages.  atm, english is 
the only thing required (well, and coding ability of course).
