Regarding the initial report:

[[
It would be nice to have the manpage of setlocale updated to declare that the 
env variable "LANGUAGE" will be read to get the language. It should also state 
that the variable LANGUAGE will be the first one (before LC_ALL or LANG).
]]

This appears incorrect to me. setlocale(3) is, as far as I know,
ignorant of LANGUAGE. Only gettext(3) knows about LANGUAGE.

  Hi,

  It would be nice to have the manpage of setlocale updated to declare that the 
env variable "LANGUAGE" will be read to get the language. 
  It should also state that the variable LANGUAGE will be the first one (before 
LC_ALL or LANG).

  Thanks.
  For the record, the bug #700213  describes a problem about that.
