A further look into the windows implementation of the qm loader part (https://cgit.kde.org/extra-cmake-modules.git/tree/modules/ECMQmLoader.cpp.in#n65) shows that the language is fetched from `QLocale::system() ` QLocale::system() is initiated on unix os from LC_ALL and friends (http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git/tree/src/corelib/tools/qlocale_unix.cpp#n75), which could be changed with the qputenv call. But on Windows the system locale is fetched from the current user locale (http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git/tree/src/corelib/tools/qlocale_win.cpp#n172), which could not be changed temporary by the test app. To have a cross platform solution I think it is really required to disable loading translations in this test. If QLocale::C could not be used for that (Albert mentioned that) an auxiliary function provided by the qmloader is required for that. I'm going to file a related review request.
