FAQ is defined in user.entites in kdelibs. You can have a translated version 
in home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdelibs/kdoctools/customization/xx/user.entities 
which then when kdelibs gets installed will be copied to 
/usr/share/apps/ksgmltools2/customization/xx/user.entities
where xx is your language code. To be able to produce the docbooks you can 
just manually copy your user.entities to the appropriate place

No it expands to <acronym>KDE</acronym>
