Any progress on this issue?

As it is, despite the availability of the Arabic translation in the
system, that translation cannot be used. Not easily anyway.

Title:
  Incorrect Arabic language local code 'ar_AR'

Status in OpenERP Server:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The only Arabic locale code available in the current OpenERP is
  'ar_AR'. This code does not represent any actual Arabic locale and is
  not recognized by Babel.

  In the 6.1 web client, the session class replaces 'ar_AR' to 'ar' and
  map it  to 'ar_SY' in _fix_lang() in 'addons/web/common/session.py'.
  As a result, the the 6.1 web client does not translate views or menus
  as 'ar_SY' is not available in the database.

  In the included patch to fix that issue, I added all Arabic Locales to
  the server in 'openerp/tools/misc.py'. Also, I added the WIN32 mapping
  in 'openerp/tools/translate.py' taken from http://msdn.microsoft.com
  /en-us/goglobal/bb895996

  After applying that patch, Arabic can be used by choosing any country
  locale. Also, country specific translations for special terms can be
  added using additional ar_XX.po files for these terms (where XX is the
  country code)
