I had to read it twice to get the point. But Masi is right with it!

I haven't tested this but think that there is a chance that init.php is
loaded without template.php. That could happen in frontend editing for
example.

Therefore I think the patch must be removed and fixed differently (or
not) for 4.2.

Alternative proposal: Check using isset() and is_object() if
$GLOBALS['LANG'] exists.
