Ah, yes.  I forgot to mention that the wx.Locale needs to be created. 
This is how wxWidgets gets its strings from its message catalog.

This shouldn't be necessary on Windows, this path is added when wx is 
imported.  On the other platforms the standard locations for message 
catalogs are searched automatically as well.

> mylocale.AddCatalog(domain)

Nor this.  The 'wxstd' catalog is already searched for.
