Right, more and more programs come with translated messages. After one upgrade I was slightly shocked that 'process killed' was translated to `Prozess getötet` (with the umlaut wrongly displayed). Although matching literate messages is no good idea (I saw programs fail because they expected "yes" instead of "ja") the simplest fix, Simon Marlow, is to internally set LANG to C or wait for a gcc that allows to disable this warning properly.
