It was the same in my previous company (both French and Italian).
Development people were initially in Italy and did the same as you
described : English for variables/function + Italian comment.

But it was a real nightmare the day some part was transfered to France
or to India. Based on this experience, I'm writing now my own
open-source code in english (even if I'm sure it's plenty of misspelling
and mistake) because it's much easier if I have to share.

As I'm working now in a French only speaking company, the added value is
to try no loosing so much my english :)
