The noise of the fallback is the only problem with that, though.

I tend to have my locale settings in my ~/.mkshrc on either side,
so I get sanitised locale environment parameters anyway. This is
the easiest, and perhaps the most reliable, way to fix this (for
interactive/shell sessions) but outside of the scope of ssh…
