I don't know. Try running jhalfs (note that you need this patch:
http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/livecd/browser/trunk/packages/jhalfs/jhalfs-2.3.1-locale-1.patch?format=raw)
and specifying the directory with your files as a working copy.

They aren't. They are compatible only with the dump-commands target,
but this is not enough.

Indeed. Maybe someone should write a guide? But then, there are
situations when exact translations are not good enough (e.g., it was
the case for Chinese with old versions of LFS, before it started
supporting multibyte encodings - I asked a translator to add a warning
that, even though the book is translated into Chinese, the end result
does not and cannot support Chinese). Does the way described above
allow for that?
