The current language selection script in 'Contents/Resources/bin/inkscape' doesn't reliably retrieve a valid value for $LANG. Some time ago I had tried to find a better solution by adding
a) parsing the OSX user preference 'AppleLanguages' (user preference for general ui language)
b) looking up that string in '/usr/X11/share/X11/locale/locale.alias' instead of '/usr/share/locale/locale.alias'

I never tested the script outside my local setup (basically en_US (keyboard de_CH) and a few test-runs with other latin1 languages that are part of the default OS X Leopard installation) - I am using it though with my current SVN builds. If anyone wants to pick up from here...
