For patches that are not too huge (they won't be probably ;) send them
simply to this list or directly to Hans Hagen.

Well, you need to create/copy+modify the 
  \installlanguage, \setupheadtext and \setuplabeltext
lines in lang-*.tex. The ISO 639-2 language code is 'eu'.
If we follow the current syntax by grouping by language family, you
should probably create lang-baq.tex (or lang-bas.tex, lang-eus.tex).

I don't know whether this can be done automatically, but you can use
  anai|_|arrebak to create the desired effect (see supp-lan.tex).
