New Comment:
setlocale() function changes environment settings, that is its job,
nothing more nothing less. In the case of Apache this change affects
other operations, that depend on chartset settings. In your case the
affect is adverse, to avoid the problem perform the affected operation
either after the change or restore the defaults before calling
virtual().

I can kind of understand that you guys can't be bothered to do much
more, but I have to ask:
1) why is there such a call as setlocale() if it it doesn't work or is
at best unreliable? Sniper, given your last comment, should I open a
doc-bug to have that entered in the documentation? "DO NOT USE"? It's
the only possible conclusion.
2) How do I get e.g. a date formatted using strftime() according to a
different locale than apaches?
And finally - isn't a bit of a fiasco not to be able to fix a solidly
reproducable bug?

As told you by Joe and Ilia: Don't do it.
The only safe and truly working way of setting such environment
variables is using apache_setenv().

Well, I didn't get very far - applied the patch to 4.3.10, but here it
stopped working.

OK, I can confirm that patch working in 4.3.9, but not in the php5.1
snapshot. I'll work my way through the 4.3.x versions up to 4.4.x and
let you know.
