Sorry, my mistake, you are right. I thought this setlocale is in the 
init applet only and missed the fact it's in the common part. So I agree 
with you that it's ugly to skip setlocale for pid 1, don't see any 
reason why this shall produce problems. So let it be and look forward if 
someone starts to complain.
