From c051346b7db27aaf674b8f3b4955240580b2a58a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "H. Peter Anvin" Date: Thu, 17 Dec 2009 06:56:11 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Makefile: set LC_CTYPE, LC_COLLATE, LC_NUMERIC to C There are a number of common Unix constructs like character ranges in grep/sed/awk which don't work as expected with LC_COLLATE set to other than C. Similarly, set LC_CTYPE and LC_NUMERIC to C to avoid other nasty surprises. In order to make sure these actually take effect we also have to clear LC_ALL. Signed-off-by: H.
