Try running a client with, say, LANG=pl and connect to
civserver.freeciv.org. Note that all the messages the server makes are in
English.

The server shouldn't send text to the clients, it should send a string
for the message and the strings/numbers to be inserted, so the code can be
gettext()'d on the client, and then stuff can be formatted into it.
