These are the recommend instructions, yes, and indeed how I imagined
people to use it.

I looked at it and while I can reproduce there's no bug.

Start from emacs -q and eval

(require 'ox-latex)
(add-to-list 'org-latex-default-packages-alist '("italian" babel nil))

When I export the document

#+begin_src org
   * titel
#+end_src

the language defaults to org-export-default-language which is "en".
So it does what you'd expect and loads English in front of Italian
'cause it's the document language.

Compare to what Eric says:

#+begin_src org
#+LANGUAGE: it
   * titel
#+end_src

You get only Italian. 

So it guesses the language correctly.
