Actually, it can. The Qt translation contains some extra information, like 
whether the language is R2L and the plural rules. If you don't load the .qm 
file for Qt itself (the qtbase one), you'll have problems.

That looks like a Unicode BiDi issue. The  symbol is in the private use area, 
so it has no BiDi flow, but "C" does. It can be explained by the above problem 
too.
