This doesn't seem right to me. setlocale(LC_ALL, "") is the correct,
portable way to set up locale information so that you can subsequently
use nl_langinfo() and friends. $LANG is not the only env var that
comes into play with locale setup.
>From the locale(7) man page:
If the second argument to setlocale() is empty string, "", for
the default locale, it is determined using the following steps:
1. If there is a non-null environment variable LC_ALL, the
value of LC_ALL is used.
2. If an environment variable with the same name as one of
the categories above exists and is non-null, its value
is used for that category.
3. If there is a non-null environment variable LANG, the
value of LANG is used.
Note that $LANG is *last*, not first.
