While this might not have been the best choice, it was the only
solution I found where the locale information was not reset so i18n is
working as expected - not that I'm keep on l10n but other might be.

In other words, running the program as unprivileged user already
caused a lot of grief in the past and appearently the nightmare hasn't
ended yet. So I am ---><--- that close to drop the idea of security
aware programming and happily execute the program as root.
