Anyway, both my perl and gtk install were done as my computer was set to French and the labels are still displayed in English
As someone who speaks only English, I have absolutely no experience of the issues faced by those who would prefer a language other than English.
When you use warnings; and warnings are emitted, are they in French ?
If so, I would have expected your Gtk2::Stock buttons to have French labels - unless perhaps your gtk libraries were built for "English".
I'll check the gtk-perl mailing list
I do subscribe to the gtk-perl mailing list, and I'll be interested to see what they have to say.

SOLVED
Digging more into this problem I managed to find an easy solution. In the gtk+ install, there is a folder gtk+\share\locale which looked very much like internationalization files. I simply copied these files in strawberry_perl\perl\site\share and that made the trick.
Due to my limited understanding of how gtk and perl interact, I first thought that either perl was able to access the internationalization files in the gtk folder or that the installation had made the job for me.
Bottom line is: yes the internationalization set is set automatically based on computer settings, provided that the files are present in the perl install folder. If not, it defaults back to English without any warning of any sort.
Cheers.

Thanks for getting back to us with that.
It has relevance to Gtk2 ppm packages that I provide.
