Description

When I include some version info into the exe and I switch the locale to German ($407), the
translation table in the compiled exe correctly says $407, but the StringFileInfo is stored as $409
(English). The version info can only be read properly when it is made with English locale.

Steps to Reproduce:

(using Delphi XE with language set to German on a German Windows 7 x64)
- create new VCL application
- open version info dialog
- select (all configurations Win32)
- select German locale
- enter some text in CopyRight
- compile Release version (to reduce exe size)
- open exe in hex viewer
- check the string following "StringFileInfo"
