Well, this is fun. It turns out that reverting 107880a makes it work,
i.e. you need to set LC_CTYPE since reading *.mo files in a
locale-awere manner involved character classification.

But as 107880a explains doing so broke other parts of Git.

I'll have to think about how to solve that, one way obviously would be
to fix up our vsnprintf() invocation, but there may be others like it
that I haven't spotted.
