Well investigating an issue that popped up running some autopilot

Is there a reason for this?
I doubt it's intentional, instead my guess would be that adb which you
appear to be using above simply doesn't bother setting those environment
variables (which makes sense considering Android doesn't have anything
like /etc/default/locale).

Popey noted that doing "sudo -u phablet -i" to gain phablet user after
shelling gets me a posix locale, while doing an "su phablet" as I did
nets me utf-8. More adb shell weirdness I guess.
Regardless, I think we want utf-8 across the board, and since we use adb
with test running, this might cause us issues (indeed it appears to be
an issue now for some).
