Comment(by sascha_silbe):

 Just stumbled about the following code block in
 sugar.activity.activityfactory.get_environment():

 {{{
     if activity.get_path().startswith(env.get_user_activities_path()):
         environ['SUGAR_LOCALEDIR'] = os.path.join(activity.get_path(),
 'locale')
 }}}

 Maybe making this assignment unconditional would fix (a part of) our
 problem?
