Indeed.
I think the easiest and most consistent way is to *not* send LANG
and LC_CTYPE and the others to the peer. I have a related question
to SendEnv in ssh_config(5):
Does
	Host debianhost
		SendEnv !LANG !LC_*
tell ssh to ignore the previous
	SendEnv LANG LC_*
set in /etc/ssh/ssh_config, or does it mean to send *all* variables
except for LANG and LC_*? Maybe I am too blind to see, but the man
page appears to be a bit vague in this case.
