Mythfrontend sets wrong language

Description
I'm working on a MythTV server with 0.25 fixes 20120603 version installed.
When I connect via a remote frontend it first asks me for my language and the server settings, I select English-US from the list (even though my LANG environment is set to en_AU for Austlralia). I then enter in the server details and it connects, except it's all in Danish for some reason.
The only work around I've got so far is crude and involves updating a database table field directly in SQL like so:
$ mysql -u root -p mythconverg
update settings set data='us' where value='Language';
This fixes it permanently for that client.

And it's quite possible that the problem is invalid records, possibly caused by direct DB editing. map7, please try shutting down all MythTV applications (backends/frontends/etc), then running:
mysql -umythtv -p mythconverg -e 'DELETE FROM settings WHERE value = "Language";'
Then restart the applications, answer the language questions, and see if it fixes the issue.

No response to request for further information made 13 months ago and I can't reproduce the issue here despite extensive testing.
FWIW 'us' is NOT a valid value for language and it's then falling back to en_US as the default.
