You mean... server-side active, I guess.

Not a real problem. Just a behaviour that confused the original
poster (I think it was Fungi4All): if your browser lang is "X"
and you click on the page's link for lang "Y" and you get a top
menu in "Xish" and a content in "Yish". The link provided by (was
it Brian?) in this thread seems to indicate that this confusion
happens more than once.
For people who don't know the browser has a language preferences
setting (and perhaps have no idea about all that HTTP content
negotiation stuff), that might be a bit... surprising, leading
some to guess that there is an IP-based shenanigan behind the
scenes.
The confused are hardly to be blamed, given the tendency of
late to keep users as stupid as possible :-/
