Reading through the 'User Language (Translation)' section of the CiviCRm localisation page, I notice that the 'sql' folder in the internationalisation tarball (civicrm-<version>-l10n.tar.gz) is not properly documented - what does one do with this folder or its contents once it has been extracted from the tarball?

Do the contents go in the 'sql' folder in the base install directory?

I think that files like civicrm_data.nl_NL.mysql (for dutch) are only used in new installations of civicrm. You should thirst install the file in the directory and then install the civicrm module.
After installation of civicrm the file is not suited to change the language, you will have all the values of all fields not translated. (location = HOME, WORK, ... (not Huis, Werk, ...) or membership status = New,Expired, ... (not Nieuw, Vervallen, ...)
