This sets the locale to the default. We don't do this because *most*
people don't have their LOCALE variables set correctly in their
environment. For example, most US users would get the "C" locale, which
would strip out all accented characters. :-(

You're much better off setting the locale: attribute to your specific
locale. For example, mine is:

locale: en_US.ISO-8859-1
