Bazaar had a number of etckeeper related bugs along these lines from
users on 11.10 and only one of these has a suspect locale setting:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bzr/+bug/796855
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bzr/+bug/836107

Likely the defaults are correct, but there still seems to be no
shortage of people who end up with 'ANSI_X3.4-1968' in some
circumstances anyway.
