every GNU gettext/libiconv program i have compiles fine with POSIX set. i run GNU/Linux from scratch, and i can pretty much say _everything_ else i have compiles fine with LC_ALL=POSIX. i set it that way so as to _not_ upset builds :-/ (i use en_GB at runtime) if i `unset LC_ALL`, they all get reset to POSIX anyway. if i do a `LC_ALL=en_US` as suggested in a previous post, i still cant build. do we have to have the LC_?? set only for the locale we want to build?
