Yep, I was also stunned when switching from the tar.gz to the buildout 
process. What I personally did, was to create the following parts in my 
buildout.cfg (my product is called "zbsp"):

---------------
[i18nzbsp]
recipe = lovely.recipe:i18n
eggs = bsp
       pysqlite==2.4.1
       sqlalchemy==0.4.7
       sdecstr
       sa_tools
       ibanlib
       zbsp
       pybktools
package = zbsp
domain = zbsp
location = ..
output = locales
--------------

Don't forget to add your eggs and reference the i18n-section in the [parts] 
section!

Then, I created in my package src directory a subdir called "locale", which 
contains the file "update_locales.sh" with the following contents:

---------------
#!/bin/sh

# Message Catalog Template extrahieren
i18nzbspextract

# Copy for english
msgfmt zbsp.pot -o en/LC_MESSAGES/zbsp.mo

# Merge for other languages
cp de/LC_MESSAGES/zbsp.po de/LC_MESSAGES/zbsp.po.backup
msgmerge -U de/LC_MESSAGES/zbsp.po zbsp.pot
---------------

Extraction works well this way, with the minor issue that the "i18n_domain" 
attribute in the ZCML-configure element is ignored, instead all message-ids 
are extracted from ZCML files.

Best Regards,
Hermann
