Fixed in CVS. This is kind of a big issue. Checking into GIT as we speak.

Aaron, what should we do wrt our current release? We could do a pacman 3.0.2-2 with a patch, if necessary.

Ah crap, I never noticed this because I have "noclobber" set in my shell (it prevents '>' from overwriting existing files).

About what to do with this, yeah maybe we should just apply the patch to the package itself.... and release -2.... unless you want to push 3.0.3 to pick up the new translations and things.... /me shrugs
