Issue #11860 has been updated by Kelsey Hightower.

Status changed from Unreviewed to Investigating

Marek,

Thanks for reporting this issue. I will be glad to assist you with this. First 
a couple of questions:

* What versions of Puppet are you running?
* OS

A quick scan in over the code reveals that you are indeed correct, info from 
the changes log:

    Set LANG/LC_ALL/LC_MESSAGES/LANGUAGE to 'C' whenever we execute things, so 
that the output that comes 
    back is more easily parsed, without needing to understand all sorts of 
foreign languages

Seems like we are setting LANG to 'C' at start up in this module:

    /lib/puppet/util.rb

Bug #11860: Puppet ovewriting the LANG environment variable.

As far as I can see puppet is changing system's LANG environment variable - 
this causes unexpected bahaviour of applications that use this setting (as LANG 
is different when you run /etc/init.d/foo stop/start/restart, and different 
when service is restarted by puppet!).
