There is no such thing as a French MacOS X system (or German, or Italian...).
When a user choose "Frangais" as a language, the Finder and the system (in dialog boxes) display "Bibliothhque" for the "Library" folders (and other French names for other folders).
But the name in the file system is still Library.
The system looks for a translation for folders including a ".localized" file.

Oh, that's interesting. I've heard that, in some cases, Mac OS X actually
only does a mirage in the Finder. The directory names are actually
English, but the Finder displays them differently to the user. Maybe that
is not actually true, or maybe that's only true for stuff in the user
domain, but the local and system domain use the actual localized names...

Yes, this is true. I have seen problems on French systems with my software
where it assumed that the library was at /Library - on a French-language
install it can apparently be called "Bibliotheque" or some such. Presumably
the same is true of other non-English installs, but so far the only problem
I've seen was on a French system.

I think what you might want to try is the FSFindFolder function. You're
not really supposed to rely on any hardcoded paths in the Mac file system,
since they are subject to change, and possibly variation from one system
to another.
