Another possible approach would be to factor out components of bzrlib that
might have a more general, or standalone, functionality.  Make those separate
libraries (kind of like the way the Zope Toolkit was split out) and port each
to bilingual as you go.   Again, as with ztk, eventually all or most of the
code would be ported and then you can move up the stack.

Not having looked in detail at the bzr code in many years, I don't know if
this is feasible or even makes sense.
