In /etc/profile I have this set

/etc/profile is only read by login shells of the Bourne tradition.


when I log in via a console I get all 3 set like that

When I log in via xdm and start a rxvt window with bash

It is missing LC_ALL.

Not sure where it is being lost ?

xdm is not a login shell - did you tell rxvt it was a login shell?
