It breaks build scripts / Makefiles, as the exit code is non-zero.
That's the main problem I've had.
Of course it's possible to workaround by modifying those scripts to
ignore the exit code. But it's just as easy to set LANG=C or (as I
have done) to write a /usr/local/bin/dd script containing
#!/bin/sh
export LANG=C
exec /bin/dd "$@"'
