But is it really a FreeBSD issue? I used to think that LC_* were complete=20
no-ops on FreeBSD, but it seems I was wrong:

[lofi@kiste]:0:~ > locale
LANG=3Dde_DE.ISO8859-15
LC_CTYPE=3D"de_DE.ISO8859-15"
LC_COLLATE=3D"de_DE.ISO8859-15"
LC_TIME=3D"de_DE.ISO8859-15"
LC_NUMERIC=3D"de_DE.ISO8859-15"
LC_MONETARY=3D"de_DE.ISO8859-15"
LC_MESSAGES=3D"de_DE.ISO8859-15"
LC_ALL=3D

[lofi@kiste]:0:~ > env LC_COLLATE=3DC locale
LANG=3Dde_DE.ISO8859-15
LC_CTYPE=3D"de_DE.ISO8859-15"
LC_COLLATE=3DC
LC_TIME=3D"de_DE.ISO8859-15"
LC_NUMERIC=3D"de_DE.ISO8859-15"
LC_MONETARY=3D"de_DE.ISO8859-15"
LC_MESSAGES=3D"de_DE.ISO8859-15"
LC_ALL=3D

Why does this not translate to GTK+?
