Hi there. Recently an upgrade to the likewise package was released. Of
course this bombed my little fix. So I checked at what points I could
abuse existing functionality without changing the behavior of the script
otherwise. One thing I wanted to avoid, for example, was to lure the
script into thinking it was running on a different system version than
it is running.

It turns out that /usr/lib/likewise-open/init-base.sh sources -
unconditionally - the file /etc/rc.subr, which is only relevant on some
BSD systems and as far as I could tell not used on the Linux distros
we're using. So what I did was to create this file with only the
following two lines:

LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LANG

This is not invasive at all and it should survive the next upgrade of
likewise.
