OK, but WHAT APPLICATION ARE YOU RUNNING?

If you are using Safari, more than likely it is not passing a
complete locale specification ("fr-FR"), but is instead just
passing "fr" as the language preference.  In fact, it might not
be passing it at all for that matter - I haven't tested I18N with
Safari (yet)...

If you are trying to see the localizations in an application's
print dialog, none of the current MacOS X releases will show the
localizations - that requires an extra CUPS API call in the app or
toolkit to enable them...
