I see in my console log:

	(/usr/local/texlive/2010/texmf-dist/tex/xelatex/polyglossia/gloss- 
russian.ldf
	
	Package polyglossia Warning: No hyphenation patterns were loaded for  
`Russian'
	(polyglossia)                I will use \language=\l at nohyphenation  
instead on input line 12.
	
	
	Package polyglossia Warning: \setlocalhyphenmin useless for  
unhyphenated language russian on input line 12.
	
	(/usr/local/texlive/2010/texmf-dist/tex/xelatex/polyglossia/ 
babelsh.def)) (/usr/local/texlive/2010/texmf-dist/tex/xelatex/ 
polyglossia/gloss-english.ldf)

The LOG file shows additionally:

	(/usr/local/texlive/2010/texmf-dist/tex/xelatex/polyglossia/babelsh.def
	File: babelsh.def 2009/05/07 Babel common definitions for shorthands
	 Taken verbatim from babel.def (2008/07/06 v3.8l)
	)
	Package babel Info: Making " an active character on input line 42.
	)
	Package polyglossia Info: Default language is russian..
	 (/usr/local/texlive/2010/texmf-dist/tex/xelatex/polyglossia/gloss- 
english.ldf
	File: gloss-english.ldf polyglossia: module for english
	)

So polyglossia is failing and switches to Babel.
