I have done something about codeblocks's internationalization, and it seems working for me. I have tested in WinXP SP1a, wxWindows 2.4.2, MingW GCC3.4.4 and CodeBlocks CVS in 11 Aug 2005. Details about the patches can be seen below:

Yes, I have modified some files like main.cpp, main.h, app.cpp, app.h, CodeBlocks_Core.iss and update.bat. And I have added somefile like intl.bat, copymo.bat, codeblocks.pot and zh_CN.po.
The english po file is codeblocks.pot which can be translated into any other language. I have translated it into Chinese, so you can see the file zh_CN.po.
I have place *.mo to codeblocks\share\locale\*.
In fact, there are so many works unfinished. For example, we should place a language choice to someplace like Settings\Environment. Hope somebody can do this work. Many source files should be modified in order that we can get more information which should be translated.
Then I want to translate it into Chinese. You can see I have done something, although it is not enough :lol:
========================
I have just update the patch file for codeblocks.pot containing strings in *.XRC .
It works well.
Needed tools are gettext and wxrc belong to wxWidgets
