To be more precise: all characters that follows the xx_YY string are actually 
ignored by Gambas, but not by the system library. The system library uses the 
full $LANG, $LANGUAGE and $LC_* environment variables to decide which language 
and which charset to use. Gambas uses just the xx_YY part to find the 
translation file to use.
