It seems to be a specificity in the German version: it's not translated
in the French version (tested on different windows versions).
And apparently neither in other languages, if one can
trust the various http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netstat page
translations, and the various "localized" screenshots of netstat using
your favorite web search engine.

Also, IMHO,  it makes little to no sense to translate stuff like
"CLOSE_WAIT" or "FIN_WAIT1" with are part of a standard
specification... so 'hardcoding" them would not cause much harm, if at all.
