mc? Sure. Even has a pretty complex translation installation system. You must
have patched it off :) It also doesn't honour neither LANG, nor LINGUAS, afaik.
However: (configure)

	if test "x$USE_NLS" = xyes; then
	    langs="${LINGUAS-$ALL_LINGUAS}"
	else
	    langs=
	fi  

doc/Makefile contains the translations hardcoded:

	DOC_LINGUAS =  es hu it pl ru

And installing simply after ./configure:

Very few have translated manpages. :(
