This may be a good time to consider moving out of BBWin. BBWin seems to be barely supported; I've had problems with it consuming too much memory. There is a new experimental Powershell based client in the Xymon repository, which seems, to me, to work better than BBWin, and since it's all plain text scripts, it should be easier to customize.

I had a look at the BBWin source code that runs "netstat -s" and it also has English-specific string matches related to detecting and presenting IPv4 vs IPv6 statistics. You might notice that the IPv4 and IPv6 metrics are listed with the same names, so EmpfangenePakete is listed twice, instead of once each for ipEmpfangenePakete and ipv6EmpfangenePakete, whereas on the English version, you see ipPacketsReceived and ipv6PacketsReceived listed separately.
For any changes to deal with non-English text to be successful, BBWin would need to be adjusted. As it stands, BBWin effectively filters out the lines related to IPv4/IPv6 ("IPv4 Statistics" etc) when they're not in English, making it very difficult for Xymon to handle these cases.
Have you tried renaming the netstat.exe.mui file and see if that helps? Perhaps BBWin could be adjusted to achieve this effect by modifying %SYSTEMROOT% for the execution of netstat.
