It depends on the locale your program is using, which has nothing to do
with the window manager.  GTK+ automatically honors the user's locale
settings, and thus it'll be translated.  In the demos/gtk-demo/
directory, try something like:

    LC_ALL=de_DE ./demo

And the stockbrowser demo will show you the stock labels in German.
