The regression tests should work just fine in non-C locales. If the
buildfarm goes out of its way to avoid non-C locales, then it loses
some significant code coverage, considering that there are several
variant code paths for locales, and considering the amount of users
that use them.
It was discussed here at the time, IIRC, and we put in the check
precisely because other locales broke the buildfarm. Originally
buildfarm just inherited the locale from its environment.
If it is no longer true that other locales break the tests, then I'm
happy to examine alternatives.
