Description Christian Persch 2004-12-02 22:24:20 UTC 
After I set the LANGUAGE to a different value (I'd just use setlocale(), but
LANGUAGE takes precedence for g_get_language_names), g_get_language_names()
still returns the same list of identifiers as before, since it only initialises
its list once, on the first call.

We probably need to do something similar to what we do for g_get_file_encoding()
