I think this answer is going to be more of general interest.
So I answer this question to all major MailingLists.

The Webmin-Software (and the Usermin-Software) are containing different
/lang directories in order to be used for different purposes.

<webmininstalldir>\lang
and
<webmininstalldir>\webmin\lang

If you look at the contents of the "en" files in each directory things are
getting clearer.

The first directory deals only with the Core-Webmin, such as
Login-Error-Messages and so on. These stuff is used before any module is
loaded somehow or someone is logged in to Webmin/Usermin iirc.

The second one deals only with the configuration of Webmin itself.
