That sounds like a good idea.
How about having them stored in a new system table (say pg_errormsg) which
contains each possible error in all the supported languages. That way, you
can have multiple language support when users from different countries use
the same server?
I have done (in other projects), multiple language support in Java, and it's
quite simple to implement.

Hi all,
I see that PostgreSQL mainly gives error messages in English, I see also
that
in some cases there's the possibility to configure it to give messages in
other languages like global.c that may be configured to give messages in
German.
MySQL gives the possibility to configure it using an external file
containing
the messages by specifying it using the parameter LANGUAGE=<language>
where <language> is one of the following:
czech
english
french
germany
italian
norwegian
norwegian-ny
polish
portuguese
spanish
swedish
It will be great if we could have also this feature on PostreSQL.
I'm available to help on translation to Portuguese, Spanish and Italian.
Jose'
