Creating a such list is probably the best idea without changing current cvs 
structure and it will allow to write an easy script.
I finally succeed to write my script, I'll send it as soon as I'll manage some 
exceptions like "the po file don't exist for a module in a locale, so 
checkout the pot file"

Results are:
- the full french translate module (without pot files) is 4,2Mo
- the full translate module (with pot files) is 215,3Mo
