I wrote my own custom sfRoutingI18nConfigHandler that makes use of the I18N-class to translate my routes. Unfortunately in symfony 1.1, the Routing-Factory is initialized before the I18N-Factory, thus I cannot access the (not yet existing) I18N-object.
Initializing the I18N-Object before the Routing would be the solution for this problem and did not cause any trouble for me. Could this patch be applied to symfony 1.1?
sfFactoryConfigHandler, move 'i18n' in front of 'routing' in line 44:
$factories = array('logger', 'i18n', 'routing', 'controller', 'request', 'response', 'storage', 'user', 'view_cache');
