…and its getHumanTimestamp is implemented in an unlocalizable way, see
http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Thread:Support/ago_%28%22$1_ago%22%29_cannot_work

Replace the implementation of getHumanTimestamp with a call to
Language::prettyTimestamp() and we are done, aren’t we? The
language-specific user-friendly formatting belongs to the language
class, anyway. And I am not sure what should have prettyTimestamp()
done differently – is wfTimestamp deprecated in favor of MWTimestamp,
or what?
