You mean that you reboot during base-config. Then the machine boots normally, you login as root and then run base-config manually, right? If so, this means you run base-config with root's environment...which does NOT have the LANG variable set. This is completely intentional as localising root's environment by default may have serious drawbacks (for instance with non Latin languages).
