Applications (e.g. ls) shouldn't use nl_langinfo(CODESET) directly in
this case. It should use iswprint(3).

Also, there isn't such environment variable "LC_LANG".
There are variables like "LANG", "LC_ALL" and "LC_CTYPE", though.

Yeah, "en_US.UTF-8" (or other ${language}_${territory}.UTF-8) should
be used.
