I have updated to r10854 and now the localisation works as expected.
It's also nice to see the dialogues appearing in Qt Linguist. Many
thanks to the responsible dev.

I notice that the decimal separator localisation is only implemented
in part. E.g the map window status bar and the attribute table use a
dot, but the Edit -> Options and Layer Properties dialogues use a
comma.
