Yeah, must have been asleep. It now works in all branches, thanks ! But 
I noticed an intriguing difference:

Debian GNU/Linux locale settings:

$ locale
LANG=fr_BE.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="fr_BE.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="fr_BE.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="fr_BE.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="fr_BE.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="fr_BE.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="fr_BE.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="fr_BE.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="fr_BE.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="fr_BE.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="fr_BE.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="fr_BE.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="fr_BE.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

GRASS6.4release locale settings:

GRASS65 locale settings:

GRASS7 locale settings:

GRASS 7.0.svn:~ > locale
LANG=fr_BE
LANGUAGE=fr_BE
LC_CTYPE=fr_BE.UTF8
LC_NUMERIC=C
LC_TIME=fr_BE.UTF8

LC_ADDRESS=fr_BE.UTF8
LC_TELEPHONE=fr_BE.UTF8
LC_MEASUREMENT=fr_BE.UTF8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=fr_BE.UTF8
LC_ALL=

Note the empty LANGUAGE in 6.5.
