There are a most complete set of language packages available for example 
on http://ftp.gtlib.cc.gatech.edu/pub/kde/unstable/4.0.66/win32/ or the 
sourceforge server 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=214730.

Also support for making language packages was added to the emerge build 
system by first updating emerge from svn and running

emerge --update l10n-kde4

Please note that this command will need a long time. To limit the number 
of languages for the build edit the file 
<svnroot>/trunk/l10n-kde4/subdirs. This is usefull for debugging or 
creating single language packages

To check intermediate build steps there is a specific preconfigure mode

emerge --preconfigure l10n-kde4 -> creates CMakeLists.txt for selected 
language

other supported modes are:

emerge --configure l10n-kde4 -> configure selected language
emerge --make l10n-kde4 -> make selected languages
emerge --install l10n-kde4 -> install selected languages
emerge --qmerge l10n-kde4 -> merge selected languages into live system
emerge --package l10n-kde4 -> create language packages

I have tested only msvc builds.
