It doesn't seem to be a problem. I have a French locale (fr_FR.UTF-8)
and quilt is talking to me in French, but the output of diff is still
in English.

At the beginning of patchfns, we do:

ORIGINAL_LANG=$LANG
export LANG=POSIX

As I understand it, it means we can assume English output from
everything we call, except in the few cases where we explicitly restore
the original locale before the call.
