Try this (taken from http://nds.i18n.kde.org/installation.php3 for Low 
Saxon...)

# CVS-Info
export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.kde.org:/home/kde
# Checkout KDE_3_3_BRANCH, leave out "-r KDE..:" for HEAD
# replace nds with your language code
cvs co -r KDE_3_2_BRANCH -l kde-i18n
cvs co -r KDE_3_2_BRANCH kde-i18n/nds
cvs co -r KDE_3_2_BRANCH kde-common

cd kde-i18n
# only do Low Saxon, replace with your language code
echo "nds" > subdirs
# administrative stuff
ln -fs ../kde-common/admin admin
# generate Makefiles
make -f Makefile.cvs
# Assumption KDE is in /opt/kde3, adapt if not
./configure --prefix=/opt/kde3
# transform po-files and install
make
sudo make install

###########
you are missing the admin folder. Try and get it directly via cvs, otherwise 
it is too much work. After that link it in the way described above

Kind regards,
