My first answer is right : you just mustcopy your files (kicad.mo and 
kicad.po) in kicad/share/internat/de
wxWidget (used by Kicad ) usually load the dictionnary corresponding to 
the default language (if you have selected the default language in 
preferences),
without any change in code, and displays translations in the GUI.

So in french, the kicad.mo file is automatically loaded from 
kicad/share/internat/fr, and for a german version of windows ou linux 
from kicad/share/internat/de
If not works, see if you put in in the right directory (you must see 
here kicad/share/internat/fr/kicad.mo and a lot of others translations).
under linux kicad is in /usr/local if download from my site, but if 
comes from a linux distribution, you must find the kicad directory in 
/usr/share.
There is already a partial translation ( kicad.mo and kicad.po) in this 
directory.

As you like.
If you send me your files, I'll upload them to kicad svn site.
the current kicad svn version is 1449, and using always the last svn 
version is better (1236 version is a bit outdated)
