Some locale settings let make fail or create wrong results, so set always the C locale.
* Conversion from lower to upper case with tr does not convert lower case 'i' to 'I' with locale tr_TR.UTF-8. This results in wrong entries in config-host.h like these ones: #define CONFIG_QEMU_PREFiX "/usr/local" #define CONFIG_QEMU_BiNDiR "/usr/local/bin" This problem was reported by Emre Ersin. * The html files created from texi input contain non english titles like "Anhang" with locale de_DE.UTF-8. The locale variables are not explicitly exported here to avoid possible problems with the 'export' keyword. Either they are already environment variables when make is called - then the new values are passed to child processes, or there are no such environment variables - then the default value C is used. v2: Enhanced commit message.
