Well, if we are careful we could commit changes to the
libreoffice/l10n/l10n/sources/*/localize.sdf files even for LibO-3.3.

Though, we should make sure that the committed file has the same format:
        + use standard string modification date 2002-02-02 02:02:02
        + use linux end of lines
        + ...

By other words, we should modify only the lines that are really
modified. Otherwise, the repository would grow unbelievable fast. Also
it would break merging of changes from the OOo sources.


Alternative solution (preferred for OOo-3.3):

+ put the modified strings into extra sdf file and commit to 
  libreoffice/build/src/sdf


Best Regards,
Petr

PS: Of course, we need to find more clever strategy after LibO-3.3.
