Monolingual will remove unwanted language support. I had no problems 
with it, but see here for user feedback:

On my iBook it freed about 400MB. I had missed the Customize button on 
the installer, so I ended up with about a gigabyte of printer drivers I 
didn't need. I just trashed them. I also got rid of the Tony Hawk game 
and, after playing with it a bit, Garage Band; the app itself didn't 
take up much space, but the software instruments and loops, which IIRC 
were in /Library/Application Support, did. All those combined left me 
with about four gigs of extra space.
