you can not generate that spec, because that will discard translations and few 
other changes.

besides, last time i asked some POLISH developer to fix things in the spec, he 
sent me to hell with reason if i care then fix my self (i was helping ac rm 
at that time).

and you can use the generator script to introduce new spec fragments, but you 
should really review what you commit, that means you don't overwrite existing 
fixes.
