The merging should absolutely *NOT* be automated.  Let's say you are
working on a translation, and then you do a 'cvs update' on the files.
A lot of conflicts are likely to be introduced when CVS tries to merge
together your local copy and the msgmerged copy from the repository.
Have a nice day manually resolving these conflicts...

It cannot be too hard for a translator to do a 'msgmerge -U'
him/herself.
