 Even tough I installed the Hungarian language pack correctly (copied into
 the languages folder and changed the wp-config.php file) Wordpress did not
 recognise the new settings and used English as its default language.

 I figured out (with this post:
 [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/36104?replies=3#post-204361]) that
 there is a bug in the ''wp-includes/gettext.php'' file.

 I had to change a line (+ $magic == $MAGIC1) and everything works fine!

 Here is the patch:

                 } elseif ($magic == ($MAGIC2 & 0xFFFFFFFF)) {
                         $this->BYTEORDER = 1;

 }}}
