This would be a horrible abuse of HTTP. You should only present the same content in different languages based on the Accept-Language field, never to different content. Having links point to different things based on browser settings would be a nightmare.
It's realy horrible for the user such a thing. It's already a nightmare with google sometimes -- If google.com want to be displayed in french because it's my default language in the browser, OK but when he begin to auto-limit my search to "french pages" he change what i expect --- so please not this on the wikipedia. A portal describing the project if you want -- maybe using the HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE field for sorting the links -- but not that.
