Well, this is the result of expanding a macro in InnoSetup -
{userdoc}.  I think those macros are customized to the locale, but
rather than speculating, perhaps someone would like to try one of the
new setup kits:

ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/windows/testing/XEmacs_Setup_21.4.19-5.exe

and

ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/windows/testing/XEmacs_Setup_21.5-b26-2.exe

in a non-English locale?  As I wrote, I'm fairly ambivalent about this
particular change and would be happy to leave the 'Start in' field
blank in the shortcuts.

Please let me know what you think and also what the results of your tests are.
