Wow!  Thanks!  Could you give more details on the failure?  This is to
include it in the Autoconf documentation:

| @item LANG                                
| @itemx LC_ALL                             
| @itemx LC_CTYPE                           
| @itemx LANGUAGE                           
| @itemx LC_MESSAGES                        
| @evindex LANG                             
| @evindex LC_ALL                           
| @evindex LC_CTYPE                         
| @evindex LANGUAGE                         
| @evindex LC_MESSAGES                      
|                                           
| These must not be set unconditionally because not all systems understand
| e.g. @samp{LANG=C} (notably SCO).  Fixing @code{LC_MESSAGES} prevents
| Solaris @command{sh} from translating var values in @code{set}!  Non-C
| @code{LC_CTYPE} values break the ctype check.  @code{LANGUAGE} is a
| @sc{gnu} extension.                       
|                                           
| @emph{If} one of these variables is set, you should try to unset it,
| using @samp{C} as a fall back value. see @ref{Limitations of Builtins},
| builtin @command{unset}, for more details.

PS/ I don't understand what you meant with `aka *'.
