I don't think that the logic flow is wrong.  The idea is to have
translated error and warning messages as soon as possible.  At the
very beginning, lilypond only knows about the compile-time LOCALEDIR
location.  Later on it checks the LILYPOND_LOCALEDIR environment
variable, and finally the relocated version of LILYPOND_LOCALEDIR.

If you know a better solution please make suggestions.
