    Actually it does not. It is trivial to add it, however
    there may be issues when the language used does not match well
    with the active codepage (or whatever its called in Windows GUI).
    [On NT this could probably be avoided, but I doubt it on Win 9x.]
    Have a look at http://abiword.pchasm.org/patches/ap_Win32Prefs-envlang.cpp.diff
    which probably still applies for an example implementation;
    though I don't claim it is fully correct. :-) It is partially
    derived from the Unix code. I use it when I want a build that
    is easy to switch the UI between English and Spanish.
