[kepler-users] No menu bar in Kepler 1.x (EDIT: for Kepler 2.x too)

Hi,
I know this thread is very old (February 2010), but I found out that the
issue addressed here is not yet solved.
I am now using Kepler 2.x, version from trunk. If I have my default system
locale set (pl_PL), then Kepler runs without menu bar and buttons are
without labels on them. My system is GNU/Linux so I can easily switch to
LANG=en_US for the specific process of Kepler. But the problem was also
confirmed on a Windows machine, and there the only option is to temporary
switch whole system to another region settings which has some system-wide
consequences.
I believe that the loader should first verify if menu mappings (and other
localization files) are present. If not, then it should switch to the
default ones.
Best regards and wishing all of you a happy New Year,
Tomek
