Hi Denny, IIRC facter will internally run commands with a C locale to get reliable command output on different locale settings [1]
% LC_ALL=de_DE.utf8 /usr/bin/who -b |awk '{print $3}'
19:34
% LC_ALL=en_US.utf8 /usr/bin/who -b |awk '{print $3}'
2017-01-10
% LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/who -b |awk '{print $3}'
Jan
