True.  But consider how this interacts with the windows event log.

Usually you end up not wanting to do that, and instead have localized 
versions of the result of substituting those things in.  For example, 
changing the sense of a boolean in English might just involve substituting 
"not " or "", but in some other language it might change the entire 
sentence structure.

FWIW, of Ken's choices, I think the third (multiple catalogs) seems most 
feasible.  Unless it turns out to be _really_ easy to programmatically 
translate format string syntax.
