This handles builtins.  ‘grep PROGRAM_OBJS Makefile’ reveals nine

They're mostly guts, but I guess imap-send should be translated.

Ok, I just wanted to make sure it was intentional.

Is the porcelain/plumbing distinction meant to be honored here?
It is possible the right thing to do would be to have run_builtin()

has a USE_LOCALE flag set.

The downside: this would make the handle_internal_command table even
wider than it already is.
