The GetText.add_default_locale_path methods should be called before
bindtextomain "rails".
It means, you need to call it before requiring 'gettext/rails'.
How about adding this code to the bottom of environment.rb(though I don't test
it) ?:
environment.rb:
-----
require 'gettext'
GetText.add_default_locale_path("/home/malte/Krakel/eventoj/locale/%{locale}/LC_MESSAGES/%{name}.mo")
require 'gettext/rails'
-----
BTW, I think the best way to support your language is
to include your language in Ruby-GetText-Package.
If you help me, I can include your language to my official package.
#Ask me directly if you are interested in it.

Masao.
