Thanks for the shout-out, Paul!
For those of you who plan to run HEAD from subversion - you'll also want to consider tuplicating the AdminSettings.php file and figuring out an easy way to batch execute the maintenance scripts.

I am setting up MW 1.9.3 in the next several days for English, Italian and Spanish as follows:
New en, it and es folders off the /wiki folder. A copied LocalSettings.php file in each sub folder. New tables in the database with different prefixes; en_, it_ and es_. The new LocalSettings.php files edited to look at these new tables.
Apache aliases to ensure domain.com/it/Milano refers to the index.php in the mother folder (/wiki). This in turn will use the /it LocalSettings.php for the Italian wiki.
I will post results as they are available but in theory this should allow multiple languages on a single MW installation with distinct wikis. This removes issues with version control and extension management.

I installed this Multilang manually, but i don't know how to use it in
wiki.
Is there anywhere a description?
The version of Multilang in Subversion is experimental, and doesn't have documentation, but the basic gist of it is:
<language code="en">Text in English.</language> <language code="fr">Text in French.</language>
<multilang />
The <multilang /> tag is replaced with an appropriate <language> block; if a block in the user's current language preference is available, then that's used, otherwise the content language (if available). If neither of those are available, then it falls back to the first available language block defined.
If a <language> tag doesn't have a "code" attribute, then it will be
ignored.
