[PD] 048-test5 > w32 strange chars

[Dan Wilcox]

Windows doesn't really have an environment variable for setting the language. You can check the locale loading proc in pd-gui.tcl. I think renaming the po dir might work, but I'm not sure.

This seems like a character encoding issue for sure, although I'm not sure what we changed that would have introduced it as, I believe, the translation files were included in the previous vanilla releases as well...
