As Hiroshi pointed out, the broken thing is the LC_COLLATE, other
things in the local are working.

I don't object the idea letting users turn it off. I said we need a
way to turn it off in the configuration/compile time.

I would say it's a misunderstanding that the locale (more precisely
LC_COLLATE) is usefull for *any* Language/encodings.
