man 3 setlocale

         "... each part of the locale  that  should  be
         modified  is  set  according to the environment variables.
         The details  are  implementation  dependent.   For  glibc,
         first  (regardless  of category), the environment variable
         LC_ALL is inspected, next the  environment  variable  with
         the  same  name  as  the  category  (LC_COLLATE, LC_CTYPE,
         LC_MESSAGES, LC_MONETARY, LC_NUMERIC, LC_TIME) and finally
         the  environment  variable LANG.  The first existing envi­
         ronment variable is used."

That is, there should be only one way for proper i18n programs: setting 
the environment variables.  But there are many ways to set the 
environment...

Because /etc/environment didn't exist in slink?  If the login in Corel
Linux doesn't use PAM, try adding "ENVIRON_FILE /etc/environment" to
/etc/login.def.  Otherwise add "auth required pam_env.so" to 
/etc/pam.d/login.

Please correct me if I'm wrong here :p

csh and tcsh uses /etc/csh.chsrc and ~/.chsrc, not sure about others ...
That's why it's better to use /etc/environment if it works. :p

Hope the above helps,
