[Typo3-dev] Alternative lanuage labels management

[Kasper Skårhøj]

Hi Romeo,

I just implemented this feature for use in the frontend of TYPO3 when
labels are requested from locallang-files in the frontend. You can
specify your alternative language via "config.language_alt". See the
next update of TSref.
