Comment:

 Well, 4.4 says:

   The LC_ALL variable controls the localization of certain programs,
 making their messages follow the conventions of a specified country. If
 the host system uses a version of Glibc older than 2.2.4, having LC_ALL
 set to something other than “POSIX” or “C” (during this chapter) may cause
 issues if you exit the chroot environment and wish to return later.
 Setting LC_ALL to “POSIX” or “C” (the two are equivalent) ensures that
 everything will work as expected in the chroot environment.

 iv: Host Requirements says:

   Glibc-2.2.5

 So, the question now is, was glibc <= 2.2.4 the '''only''' reason that
 LC_ALL=POSIX is being used?  If so, it looks like it can be removed.
