OK, the solution by Anton Stepnov works as well as mine.
Actually, the problem seems to be somewhere in libx11-data or it's nearest neighbours: according to /usr/share/X11/locale/locales.dir, the files for Russian locale should be in ./ru_RU folder, however they actually located in the en_US folder. I believe the very same problem should appear with many other locales.
To Anton Stepnov and all Russian Kubunt users:
For distribution of Kubuntu Edgy in Russia I use a workaround: I added some extra commands in /usr/sbin/locale-gen so the fix is applied every time locales are re-generated. This works fine; however I'd say fixing the actual path for Russian locale should be better.
The modified /usr/sbin/locale-gen is in the attachment.
