sounds as if locale is properly set because of midnight commander behaviour.
try 'locale' and see what locales are set to es_ES

on some old linuxes I have to use sth like this:

========================================
LANG=pl_PL
LC_CTYPE="pl_PL"
LC_NUMERIC="pl_PL"
LC_TIME="pl_PL"
LC_COLLATE="pl_PL"
LC_MONETARY="pl_PL"
LC_MESSAGES="pl_PL"
LC_PAPER="pl_PL"
LC_NAME="pl_PL"
LC_ADDRESS="pl_PL"
LC_TELEPHONE="pl_PL"
LC_MEASUREMENT="pl_PL"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="pl_PL"
LC_ALL=

export LANG LC_CTYPE LC_NUMERIC LC_TIME LC_COLLATE LC_MONETARY LC_MESSAGES
export LC_PAPER LC_NAME LC_ADDRESS LC_TELEPHONE LC_IDENTIFICATION LC_ALL
========================================

instead of LC_ALL="pl_PL"; export LC_ALL

For spanish messages LC_MESSAGES should be set to "es_ES".
Go to:
/usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES and you will see what prog will 
show you spanish:

Slackware 7.1
for example:

usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/sh-utils.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/textutils.mo
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/fileutils.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/grep.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/mc.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/bison.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/gettext.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/bug-buddy.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/control-center.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/enlightenment-conf.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/ee.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/enlightenment.mo 
usr/X11R6/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/freetype.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/gdm.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/gedit.mo 
usr/X11R6/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/gftp.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/ggv.mo 
usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/glade.mo 

look at slakware/MANIFEST.gz to see the rest :)
