no. i need to add a few lines of code to import those
environment variables and override our builtin setttings.
(this is on my list of things to do next week.)

in the mean time, edit (with vi or emacs) the
file ~/.AbiSuite/AbiWord.Profile.
change both instances of "_builtin_" to "custom"
and all the instances of "EnUS" to "FrFR"
and then start AbiWord.
