That's what "USERDEF1" part is for. If the translation doesn't exist, 
TYPO3 generates links according to this part. Due to 
"USERDEF1.doNotLinkIt = 1" it doesn't generate the link at all and 
thanks to "USERDEF1.allWrap" it wraps the images (flags) in links that 
lead to the homepage of that language (you have set the correct URL, of 
course).

So, in short, if the translation of the current page exists the "NO" and 
"ACT" parts come in play. If the translation doesn't exist, "USERDEF1" 
is used.
