I had one VM running.
I applied your hint, with a restart of ovirt engine.
I VNC-reconnected to the VM : old locale
I'm not sure, but I think I rebooted to VM : old locale
I rebooted the manager, then vnc-reconnected to the VM : new locale

I'm sorry I'm not precise enough, but I'm also pretty sure I 
disconnected from the web gui, with no benefit.

Apart from the gtk that I had to downgrade (iso import issue - see 
recent mailing list msgs), they look like the same.
