If i want to try *uninstalled* translations then what do i have to do?

  gtk_init (...);
  bindtextdomain("redael", "/home/joshua/redael/locale");
  textdomain("redael");

  cp po/mr.gmo /home/joshua/redael/locale/mr/LC_MESSAGES/redael.mo
  cp po/mr.gmo /home/joshua/redael/locale/mr_MR/LC_MESSAGES/redael.mo

  LANG=mr_MR ./redael

It seems like this should work but it doesn't.
