Yes, it breaks the string freeze if we had one. However, I think the bugfix 
justifies introducing this additional one.

Actually I'm not so sure whether the original message wording couldn't be 
improved. For one, "the locale currency" is probably a rather unknown term 
(think Windows user here). Couldn't we say something like:

  Could not determine the account currency for this register.
  Using the currency obtained from the system's locale setting instead.

or similar? That should make it more useful for the non-techie user...
