Public bug reported:

After clean install of Ubuntu 11.10 and installing the Dutch/Flemish language, I tried to set the regional formats to Dutch (still using the English interface, I only want the Dutch regional formats). This fails with the message "[Failed to apply the 'nl_NL.UTF-8' format choice: unsupported locale setting]" displayed after "Date:". The same happens for Dutch(Belgie) with 'nl_BE.UTF-8'.
After restarting the language-selector the procedure works as expected. Bug also exists for other languages (tried with Dzongkha)

Steps to reproduce (on an English clean install)
1. Open language-selector, click 'Install / Remove Languages...', install 'Dutch; Flemish' 
2. Do not close the language selector!
3. Go to 'Regional Formats', set to Dutch, you get the error message
4. Close language-selector
5. Try step 3 again, and this time it works.
