Thanks for acking this.

I suppose Akihiko is correct that we don't have to put it via setlocale()
in C API, right?

Also I guess you prefer this version (LC_ALL=C). I suggested unset LC_ALL;
export LC_COLLATE=C; export LC_NUMERIC=C as it's used in kernel's Makefile (they
have more there, but IMHO only this is relevant for us).

Kind regards,
Petr
