Comment:

 After a more detailed look, it appears that the svn repository containing
 extragear translations is a pure data repository, without any installation
 script. This implies that including these translations would require to
 create all the installation structure internally in Macports.

 Furthermore, another issue is that there are messages for both very
 different softwares and languages, so that the Portfile would have to be
 huge (installing everything), or be a multitude of small ports by either
 software or language, which would be very difficult to maintain.

 Compared to these issues, manually installing the required file does not
 seem to much of a hassle, or, if a more automated way should made, it
 should be prepared upstream beforehand before it could be used by package
 managers.
