Though no need to set LC_CTYPE if you're setting LC_ALL.  Setting LC_ALL 
sets LC_CTYPE, LC_NUMERIC, LC_TIME, LC_COLLATE, ... and the rest of the 
LC_* variables to the same value.  The only time you should use LC_CTYPE 
is if you want to use one locale for characters and a different for 
something else (such as numbers or time or whatever).
