It's been a long time since I wrote this code, but if I still remember correctly NSLocale falls back to whatever is specified in $LANG if the Locale default is unset. If $LANG is also unset, then it falls back to en_US_POSIX. You could also also create your own NSLocale using +localeWithLocaleIdentifier:. This will not interfere with the system or current locales.
