That is indeed part of the problem, thanks for clarifying.
Though I disagree that ssh should not transmit the current locale: it
_should_, precisely because it could be different coming from Solaris,
or Debian, or Windows, and you want to make sure both sides agree on
the encoding. Of course, this also assumes that there is some suitable
locale conversion that can take place; otherwise the whole exercise is
pointless [such as an English locale user ssh'ing into a Japanese box].
But anyway, this is rapidly moving #offtopic, so I'll shut up now :)
