Summary: gettext localization broken at all

Initial Comment:
all tested under Python 2.4.4 for the "run from source" version. The "frozen" part of the code has not been tested and is untouched.

In my opinion the current source code version of localization can't work at all.

The python documentation says, gettext.find() looks for the message file under 
<localedir>/<language>/LC_MESSAGES/<domain>.mo

So SpamBayes should provide <cvsroot>/spambayes/languages as <localedir>
but it doesn't. LC_DIR points to <cvsroot>/spambayes

The provided patch fixes that problem.

Code quality improvement:
The variable LC_DIALOGS was badly named. Better name is LC_LANG.
