Note: The variable LANGUAGE is ignored if the locale is set to 'C'. In
other words, you have to first enable localization, by setting LANG (or
LC_ALL) to a value other than 'C', before you can use a language
priority list through the LANGUAGE variable.

No, gimp installs the French message catalogs under
share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES and "fr" is definitely enough.
Compare:
$ LC_ALL=fr gtar --help

Our devel/gettext port doesn't have any semantic changes.
