I've fetched Firefox's pt-PT locale, but when I try to compile IceCat 
with it, or I try to just create a Jar file, I get this error:

It seems to try entering in a l10n dir, but there is no such dir. :|
I've looked into locale's Makefile and I didn't see anything that could 
do that. But then again, I barely understand Makefiles.

Peace;
