Works for me. As root do:
install -m 755 -d /usr/X11/lib/X11/de/appdefaults
cp /usr/X11/lib/X11/app-defaults/XTerm /usr/X11/lib/X11/de/app-defaults
Translate the "de" one into German, then try:
setenv LANG de
xterm

Japanese may be a bit of a problem (until we have proper locale
support for it). You have to convince the system that LANG
is "ja" before Xt turns on the wide character support...
