For the record, here is the response I put on the question this bug was
converted into:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Fabrice, 

When using the GTK client, the client application cannot currently change the language for the menus and buttons dynamically, because these are loaded automatically by the GTK framework when the application is initialized.
Normally the language of the GTK menus and buttons will be changed after the client is restarted, using the application language of the last user that logged in into the system (basically the "lang" value of the [client] section in the config file, usually in $HOME/.openerprc)

There might be some limitations on some systems where the GTK client is
not able to switch to the OpenERP language for menus and buttons if that
language is not available in the local settings of the operating system
(i.e. if it is not an available locale). In that case there will be a
warning message in the GTK log file when it starts.

If you have tried this technique and the language is still not correctly
set, please reopen the bug report and explain the different things you
tried, what are the locales available on your machine, and possibly the
error messages that are in the GTK logfile (or console)

In the Web client the issue is a bit different because all menus and
buttons are part of the web pages, so they can be directly translated.

I hope this helps...
