Well, not without code, no. ;)
Though, there are not many easy optimizations, since xml2po is doing a
lot of complicated stuff while trying to produce output that's easy on
the translators, not on the CPU.
What we can (and probably will) do is to add a separate (and quick)
xml2po-lint tool to check for most common problems in translations, so
you'd get faster response on what translations have problems so you
can avoid including them.

Remove them (from DOC_LINGUAS, thus from dist as well). Also, file a
bug against "l10n" product with appropriate language component, so
translators know where the problem is.
OTOH, I plan to add more debug info to our docs status pages
(actually, I have already written entire new status pages with these
features from scratch, and just need to set them up and test them ;),
so this should become less of a problem (translators would be more
aware of any problems in their translations).
Cheers,
Danilo
