There is a piece of user js which was implemented on en which does
this, incidentally:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Manishearth/Scripts#Wikipedia_interwiki_translator

- it turns, eg, "Espanol" into "Spanish (t)", with the (t) link going
to a Google translate link for the target page.

I haven't used it much, but it's a useful tool to have.
