This is very odd, I've never seen that while testing locales stuff with
IceCat.

Could you try running with a fresh profile?  E.g., 'icecat
--ProfileManager', create a new profile, and start it from there?

It should work.  I suspect the problem may be caused by
'intl.locale.requested' being set to something.  It needs to be unset
for the system locale to be honored, so if that's the problem with your
current profile, you could try clearing it by visiting "about:config" in
the URL bar.
