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

Title:

To manage notifications
documentation of the meaning and hierarchy of LANG, LANGUAGE and LC_ is
scattered across a number of places which I agree is unfortunate. See
bug 311558 for another example. I'd think that having it documented in
only one place and have other manpages refer to that places would be the
way to go.
