I haven't used the module personally, but according to the doc section
you noted, the default behavior shouldn't be to return the english,
*unless* the english lexicon has an _AUTO setting, in which case it will
do so.
Reference:
http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.8.0/lib/Locale/Maketext.html#AUTO-LEXICONS
If this doesn't help, can you post some of the code where you setup your
lexicons, and the subclasses, etc. I also assume you haven't messed
with the 'fail_with' attribute, preventing the usual 'die'? I do find
it weird that many of the examples show calling maketext with an 'or
die' idiom, which seems pointless if the default behavior on error is to
throw an exception.
Not sure what happened to your original message, it could just be none
of the resources have used the module before...
