Choosing the language uses the content negotiation of the web server. There is no such concept as "outdated translations" in content negotation. So you have two choices: Either leave the translation online and add a note that it is outdated or remove it entirely until it is updated. Currently we use method 1 and translations are only removed it they aren't updated for a long time (six months). This seldomly causes problems AFAIK. If it does updating the translation or removing it shouldn't be a problem. There might be a third method like renaming outdated files so that they are not choosen automatically but are still linked from the other translations.
