I think that preferred units could be chosen at the same time as
language.  So there's the big list of languages, and underneath are a
couple of radio buttons

Units of measurement
  ( )  Metric / ISO        ( ) US

You could probably guess this based on the language chosen.

(It would be possible to make finer distinctions, eg in Britain we use
metric paper sizes, but many users may prefer feet and inches for
measurement, which are the same as in America, although other units are
slightly different sizes... as you can see, I don't think it is worth
bothering.  Maybe an 'advanced' dialogue box where a user could specify
that although he prefers lengths in millimetres, font sizes should be
measured in 1/72 inch 'points'.)
