Please reread the patch. They are looked at, just not exclusively. LC_ALL overrides everything, and LANG is looked at if no LC_CTYPE (or whatever) is used. That's the order Unix does it (man 7 locale).Why LC_ALL or LANG don't work for you then?
Well, I had read glibc sources and it's definitely ignores LC_CTYPE.
No, it shouldn't. Again, I'd ask to use LANG or LC_ALL for that purpose,?
you can't have LANG and LC_TYPE point to different locales in a sane
manner anyway.
Docs says I can.
Actual practice says I can (I do it all the time, as do many people in Israel).
Please elaborate on why you chose to call a documented behavior *that works* "insane".
Sorry, I skipped other parts of your arguments.
