[just noticed this, redirecting to -hackers]
When run under meson, yes unless the LANG/LC_* settings are explicitly
in the build_env. I'm fixing that so we will allow them to pass through.
When run with configure/make they run with whatever is in the calling
environment unless overridden in the build_env.
We do have support for running installchecks with multiple locales.This
is done by passing --locale=foo to initdb.
We could locale-enable the non-install checks (for meson builds, that's
the 'misc-check' step, for configure/make builds it's more or less
everything between the install stages and the (first) initdb step. We'd
have to do that via appropriate environment settings, I guess. Would it
be enough to set LANG, or do we need to set the LC_foo settings
individually? Not sure how we manage it on Windows. Maybe just not
enable it for the first go-round.
