 I am running Mac OS X 10.5.6.
 When I run Gretl 1.8.0 from the official distribution  with
 LANG=fr_FR LANGUAGE=french ./gretl
 in the directory Contents/Resources/bin then Gretl starts up with
 English as language...
 And now the big surprise.
 Gretl 1.8.0cvs (not the very latest version) compiled in my
 environment independently from Fink using GTK2.14.3 from the R Mac OS
 X project correctly sets the language... 
Thanks for the tip; I'll see if I can replicate what you have
done.
