this would allow a small # of bugs to creep into our system (some packages run 
programs and then grep the output for english strings and miss setting 
LC_{MESSAGES,ALL} to C first), but that might easily be smaller than the burden 
placed on bug-wranglers ...

i'm indifferent to setting LC_MESSAGES=C in the default make.conf (i.e. via 
catalyst).  i don't think it should be in the profile's make.defaults.
