Trying to start Emacs from an MSYS shell with the command line

LANG=C <drive>:/path/to/emacs -Q

results in

Wrong type argument: arrayp, nil

The above is just a test case.  The real-world problem (mentioned
already in another message to this list today) is the configure script
of AUCTeX as generated by autoconf.  This sets LANG and other
variables to C, exports them, calls Emacs within an environment with
these variables altered, and aborts because of Emacs bailing out.
