This looks okay, although there are a lot of things that can be removed. 
For any PO document, the SRCS only needs to be book.xml or article.xml. 
Makefile entries about chapters or calculating things can all be 
removed.  That is not the problem here, but the extras need to be 
removed.

The problem here is that the English version generates a list of 
FreeBSD mirrors, and the PO process does not see how to do create those 
nonexistent files.  The rules to create them are in the English 
version's Makefile.

For now, generate those files by hand in the English directory:

   % cd ~/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/
   % make make mirrors.lastmod.inc mirrors.xml.ftp.inc mirrors.xml.ftp.index.inc eresources.xml.www.inc eresources.xml.www.index.inc

After this, creating the PO in the Korean directory works.
