Which reminds me of another bug in Lazarus.

Change the Lazarus IDE default language to German.  Restart the IDE.
Now open the Compiler options and click the 'Hilfe' (help) button.
The English help is displayed and not the German wiki help.

http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/IDE_Window:_Project_Options

instead of the German...

http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/IDE_Window:_Project_Options/de


PS:
I have no idea how you would test if the translated (non-english)
version exists in the wiki or not.
