[cups.general] locale problem

Hi there,

I've noticed something strange writing a CUPS backend.

I've got a CUPS 1.1.23 print server to which I print from linux 
boxes and windows boxes. The windows boxes print directly to 
http://myserver:631/printers/myqueue through the printer's native 
windows drivers. 

Since I'm french, all the clients are configured for french language. 

If I print from linux, then CUPS correctly detects my locale and my 
backend uses the french locale. 

But if I print from Windows, then the locale seems to be incorrect 
because my backend doesn't use the french locale. 

Any idea ?

Thanks in advance for any help.
