A possible workaround is to use the AppLocale tool:
http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/tools/apploc.mspx
What it does is allow you to specify a different "system" locale to
individual apps. It's not exactly the same as running the given app with
that system locale -- there are differences, and there are some
limitations in what AppLocale can accomplish (i.e., no guarantees are
made that it will do what you need).
