We read the country names from QLocale the first time the model is
populated. Make sure that QLocale::language() returns the right value
before constructing the first QxtCountryModel (that is, the first
QxtCountryComboBox) in your application. If this still doesn't work,
check to confirm that calling QApplication::translate("QLocale",
"Germany") returns the right string; if it doesn't, the bug is
possibly in Qt itself.

attn: developers: Storing the localized versions in static storage
seems like a bad idea; this won't handle changing locales at run-time.
This should probably be fixed for 0.6.
