The 'c' locale is a minimal locale for Unix that is used for programmatic  
output.  Thus, if you are scripting and parsing the output of commands  
that might be localized (like ps, netstat, ifconfig, etc.), selecting 'c'  
locale standardizes the output to what Unix had before localization became  
the norm, and started breaking scripts that were expecting the old output  
format.  It also set the character encoding to US-ASCII (ah the good ol'  
days, when a byte and a char were synonymous.)  Apparently also called  
POSIX locale now.  http://www.linux.com/archive/feed/53781
