OK, replying to my own message here...
Seeing that I can't get Inkscape to automatically use the System language on OS X, I'm trying to find a way to manually set the language.
I've tried using the following command in xterm:
export LANG="fr_FR"
It seems to produce the wanted effect, because upon issuing the "locale" command, I get the following output:
LANG="fr_FR" LC_COLLATE="fr_FR" LC_CTYPE="fr_FR" LC_MESSAGES="fr_FR" LC_MONETARY="fr_FR" LC_NUMERIC="fr_FR" LC_TIME="fr_FR" LC_ALL="fr_FR"
However, Inkscape doesn't seem to recognize this and still runs in English. (I have quit and relaunched Inkscape in the same "X11 session" [or whatever...])
So... help, please?

This would look more like a GTK problem than the environment variable (being that you're on an X11 session but you can run different apps with different locales). Maybe setting this up in GTK might help? I'm not familiar with Inkscape in Windows or Machintosh platforms, so I can't really tell (besides, I do believe that GTK-- is statically linked in Inkscape, so it doesn't depend on having a GTK-- environment installed for platforms other than Linux, or should I say GTK+Linux, as I believe the autopackage packages are the same)
