If you want to set something, set LC_ALL.
Otherwise a user-set LC_ALL will override it.
(and it also sets LC_CTYPE, which is even more likely to cause
problems than LC_MESSAGES).

I'd say a proper test-suite already sets LC_ALL=C itself unless
it's locale independent, so if you have a test-suite not doing
this please also report this upstream.
