Summary0001429: Special characters (german) and menu entries missing or shown as "?" in Ardour2-beta10
DescriptionI installed ardour2beta10 and get a lot of warnings when starting it (see below) and while loading a session. Tested with Kernel 2.6.19-rt15 / 2.6.18-rt8 in Debian unstable and Enlightenment DR17 SVN.
See thread http://www.ardour.org/node/657
Others can reproduce that.

Within ardour, special german characters aren’t shown. A lot of menu entries are missing, and I think all the missing entries have special german characters in them (can’t say for sure because I can’t see them).
Also, when you stat ardour2beta10, the first dialog show special characters as "?".

Without this working correctly, no german user can use Ardour2 properly, that's why I rated it a major bug. Advice me if I should rate this minor or something else in the future.

The warnings from the console are below (additional Information).
I uploaded a file of Mauser (from the forum) showing the missing entries.
