As somebody working on quality assurance I would always vote for hard settings (choosing language by hand) should overrule soft settings (scripts). But after a look on the HTML code you return I think I understand what's happening. And now I agree that your way is the better way because 'fixing' the issue would mean to return scripts and cookies to the browser.

I'm not working on internet related topics but AFAIK our browser is no real browser but a graphical web page editor that can browse HTML up to standard 3.2. The language settings are normally read from StarOffice itself. Using any 32bit M$ Windows you can plug the IE installed on the system, means settings are called from IE internet options. > > console, change the locales and start the browser from there.
