Ah, I see what you're talking about.  If you haven't specified LANG, or 
you specify a bad value for LANG--even if LC_ALL or LC_CTYPE is set 
correctly--you'll see the garbage value in the "Assumed character 
encoding" message.  So, really, that message isn't exactly right unless 
you've set LANG and LC_ALL (or LANG and LC_CTYPE) to the same exact value.

Really, we should log the values we got from each of locale, from 
LC_ALL, from LC_CTYPE, and LANG, because lc_value (which is used in the 
"Assumed character encoding" message) is always ending up with whatever 
you specify in LANG.

Regardless, if you're seeing something about nl_US, then you have that 
set somewhere.
