I suppose that main-menu should set the variable LANGUAGE.  With this
variable cfdisk tries to speak French.  This is what I do:

First get a quick d-i shell prompt:

make TYPE=<here_some_type_with_cfdisk> shell

And then:

# LANGUAGE=fr
# export LANGUAGE
# cfdisk /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc

And this is the result I get:

                                  cfdisk 2.12

I supposed that the problems were caused by incomplete translation but
now I see that the problem is different.  The text breaks at some of the
non-ASCII symbols.  For example cfdisk prints "Unit" instead of "Unité
de disque", "[" instead of "[Étiq.]", "[Amor" instead of "[Amorçable]",
etc.

On the other hand the German umlauts are showed.  I don't know what
makes the difference.  Maybe there is some bug in the locale C.UTF-8.
