Aha!  You got it!  From a console both ~/.bashrc and /etc/env.d/02locale are 
being read as expected and the settings adopted.

From within X the different terminals do their own thing.  So it must be a 
dekstop script that sets them up differently.  The question then becomes, 
which script ...

I use Enlightenment as my desktop manager and kdm as the Display Manager, but 
wouldn't know where to look further than that.  kdm is starting up 
Enlightenment by reading my ~/.xsession, which does not have any locale 
settings in it from what I can tell.
