Hi!

Because of the Arabic translations (IIRC), I've added an option for KBabel 
(HEAD) to set, if the %n is actually required in the translation. If you turn 
this off, you only need to provide enough forms in the translation divided by 
\n.

OK, there is no KBabel version released with this option. Also, it does not 
allow you to specify, that %n is not required in the first translation only.
