In Bug #15607 comment #60, Tim outlines the problem that must be solved before the InterLanguage extension can be deployed on WMF wiki's.  Opening a new bug for this to make separate issues easier to track:

> We can't enable extensions that don't allow DB replication and load balancing.
> CentralAuth and the commons file repo were migrated to use LBFactory long ago.
> This extension seems to be based on those modules before they were migrated. 
>
> Basically, instead of configuring complete DB constructor parameters, you just
> need a DB name, and the rest is done in $wgLBFactoryConf. Then to get a
> connection, use:
>
> $lb = wfGetLB( $dbname );
> $dbw = $lb->getDB( DB_MASTER, array(), $dbname );
> $dbr = $lb->getDB( DB_SLAVE, array(), $dbname );
